Let G_n denote the planar graph defined in A358746 with the addition, if n is odd, of the circle containing the initial n points; sequence gives the number of edges in G_n.

COMMENTS
If n is even the circle through the initial n points is already part of the graph.
In other words, draw a circle and place n equally spaced points around it; for each pair of poins X, Y, draw a circle with diameter XY; the union of these circles is the graph G_n.
For the numbers of vertices and regions in G_n see A358746 and A370976.
For other images for n even, see A358746 (for even n, A358783 and the present sequence agree).

FORMULA
