%N Difference between triangular number and next perfect square.

%C If a(n)=1 then such n gives the sequence A006451 (triangular numbers whose distance to the nearest bigger perfect square is 1). [From _Ctibor O. Zizka_, Oct 07 2009]

%H Robert Israel, <a href="/A128549/b128549.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%F a(n) = (floor(sqrt(n(n+1)/2))+1)^2-n(n+1)/2.

%e a(1)=2^2-1(1+1)/2=3, a(2)=2^2-2(2+1)/2=1, a(3)=3^2-3(3+1)/2=3, a(3)=4^2-4(4+1)/2=6.
