%N Numbers k such that the continued fraction for sqrt(k) has even period and if the last term of the periodic part is deleted the central term is 53.

%C "Central term" means the term at 1/2 of the length of the repeating part, not the term following that term, e.g., if the terms are {a,b,c,d}, the "central term" is b, not c. - _Harvey P. Dale_, May 19 2012

%C Includes 2809 * k^2 + 2 * k for k >= 1, where the continued fraction has initial term 53*k and periodic part [53, 106*k], and 3025 * k^2 - 2 * k for k >= 1, where the continued fraction has initial term 55*k-1 and periodic part [1, 53, 1, 110*k-2]. - _Robert Israel_, Apr 11 2023
