Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Numbers n such that n^2 is the sum of two or more consecutive positive squares.
%C These numbers were found by exhaustive search. The sums are not unique; for n = 143, there are two representations. The Mathematica code prints n, the range of squares in the sum and the number of squares in the sum. Because the search included sums of all squares up to 2000, this sequence is complete up to 2828.

%e 29 is in this sequence because 20^2 + 21^2 = 29^2.
%e Contribution from _Donovan Johnson_, Feb 19 2011: (Start)
%e For seven terms < (10^15)^(1/2), the square is a sum in two different ways:
%e 143^2 = 7^2 + ... + 39^2 = 38^2 + ... + 48^2.
%e 2849^2 = 294^2 + ... + 367^2 = 854^2 + ... + 864^2.
%e 208395^2 = 2175^2 + ... + 5199^2 = 29447^2 + ... + 29496^2.
%e 2259257^2 = 9401^2 + ... + 25273^2 = 26181^2 + ... + 32158^2.
%e 6555549^2 = 41794^2 + ... + 58667^2 = 87466^2 + ... + 92756^2.
%e 11818136^2 = 10898^2 + ... + 74906^2 = 29929^2 + ... + 76392^2.
%e 19751043^2 = 39301^2 + ... + 107173^2 = 249217^2 + ... + 255345^2. (End)
