%N Tribonacci numbers that start with first three squares.

%C n and a(n) are of the same parity. Except for the first three terms and a(5)=27, there is no perfect powers (A001597) in the first 225 terms. In fact there is always at least one factor which is represented only once. - _Robert G. Wilson v_, Aug 27 2003
