%N a(n) = Sum_{i=1..n} floor(r*floor(i/r)), where r=sqrt(2).

%C More generally if r is irrational 1 < r < 2 then Sum_{i=1..n} floor(r*floor(i/r)) = n*(n+1)/2 - floor((1-1/r)*n); if r > 2, there is the asymptotic formula Sum_{i=1..n} floor(r*floor(i/r)) = n*(n+1)/2 - ceiling(r)*(1-floor(r)/(2*r))*n + O(1).
