%N Total number of line segments between points visible to each other in a square n X n lattice.

%C A line segment joins points (a,b) and (c,d) if the points are distinct and gcd(c-a,d-b)=1.

%Y The following eight sequences are all essentially the same. The simplest is A115004(n), which we denote by z(n). Then A088658(n) = 4*z(n-1); A114043(n) = 2*z(n-1)+2*n^2-2*n+1; A114146(n) = 2*A114043(n); A115005(n) = z(n-1)+n*(n-1); A141255(n) = 2*z(n-1)+2*n*(n-1); A290131(n) = z(n-1)+(n-1)^2; A306302(n) = z(n)+n^2+2*n. - _N.
