FORMULA
Euler transform of period 16 sequence [ -1, 0, 1, 1, 1, -1, -1, -2, -1, -1, 1, 1, 1, 0, -1, -1, ...].
Pattern of signs of nonzero terms is A143431.
G.f.: Sum_{k>=0} (-1)^(k + floor(k/4)) * x^(k * (k+1) / 2).
a(n) = (-1)^n * A143434(n).
a(2*n) = A244465(n). a(2*n + 1) = - A244525(n). a(3*n + 2) = a(5*n + 2) = a(5*n + 4) = 0.
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 - x + x^3 - x^6 - x^10 + x^15 - x^21 + x^28 + x^36 - x^45 + x^55 + ...
G.f. = q - q^9 + q^25 - q^49 - q^81 + q^121 - q^169 + q^225 + q^289 + ...

PROG
(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, if( issquare(8*n + 1, &n), n = n\2; (-1)^(n + n\4), 0))};
