COMMENTS
Leading zeros in substring allowed so 103^2 = 10609 is rejected because 1{060}9 contains a palindromic substring.
A comment in A052061 suggests that this sequence is infinite.

FORMULA
a(n) = A052061(n)^2. - Andrew Howroyd, Aug 11 2024

2304 (= 48^2) -> substrings 23, 30, 04, 230, 304 and 2304 are all non-palindromic.
PROG
