Comments

It appears that a(n) is the number of positive solutions to the equation x*floor(x) = n - 1 (for example, it appears x = 5/2 is the only positive solution to x*floor(x) = 5). - Melvin Peralta, Apr 13 2016

From Branko Curgus, Apr 25 2017: (Start)

a(n) is 0 if the nearest square to n is greater than or equal to n, otherwise 1.

a(n) is the number of positive solutions to the equation x*floor(x) = n - 1. (End)

a(n) = floor((n-1)/A000194(n)) - A000194(n)+1, where A000194(n) = round(sqrt(n)). - Antonio G. Astudillo (afg_astudillo(AT)hotmail.com), Feb 23 2003

a(n+1) = 1 - A118175(n). - Philippe Deléham, Jan 02 2012

a(n) = ceiling(sqrt(n)) - round(sqrt(n)). - Branko Curgus, Apr 26 2017
