%N Restart counting after each new odd integer (a fractal sequence).

%C The following sequences all have the same parity: A004737, A006590, A027052, A071028, A071797, A078358, A078446.

%C This is also a triangle read by rows in which row n lists the first 2*n-1 positive integers, n >= 1 (see example). - _Omar E. Pol_, May 29 2012

%C a(n) mod 2 = A071028(n). - _Boris Putievskiy_, Jul 24 2013

%C The triangle in the example is the triangle used by Kircheri in 1664. See the link "Mundus Subterraneus". - _Charles Kusniec_, Sep 11 2022

%F a(n) = n - 1 - ceiling(sqrt(n))*(ceiling(sqrt(n))-2); n > 0.

%F a(n) = n - floor(sqrt(n-1))^2, distance between n and the next smaller square. - _Marc LeBrun_, Jan 14 2004
