%C A025426(a(n)) > 1. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Aug 16 2011

%C For the question that is in the link AskNRICH Archive: It is easy to show that (a^2 + b^2)*(c^2 + d^2) = (a*c + b*d)^2 + (a*d - b*c)^2 = (a*d + b*c)^2 + (a*c - b*d)^2. So terms of this sequence can be generated easily. 5 is the least number of the form a^2 + b^2 where a and b distinct positive integers and this is a list sequence. This is the why we observe that there are many terms which are divisible by 5. - _Altug Alkan_, May 16 2016

%C Square roots of square terms: {25, 50, 65, 75, 85, 100, 125, 130, 145, 150, 169, 170, 175, 185, 195, 200, 205, 221, 225, 250, 255, 260, 265, 275, 289, 290, 300, 305, ...}. They are also listed by A009177. - _Michael De Vlieger_, May 16 2016

%e 50 is a term since 1^2 + 7^2 and 5^2 + 5^2 equal 50.

%e 25 is not a term since though 3^2 + 4^2 = 25, 25 is square, i.e., 0^2 + 5^2 = 25, leaving it with only one possible sum of 2 nonzero squares.

%e 625 is a term since it is the sum of squares of {0,25}, {7,24}, and {15,20}.
