A143997 Rectangular array by antidiagonals: label each unit square in the first quadrant lattice by its northeast vertex (x,y) and mark squares for which (x,y) is congruent mod 4 to one of the following: (1,4), (2,2), (3,3), (4,1); then R(m,n) is the number of UNmarked squares in the rectangle [0,m]x[0,n].

Formula

R(m,n) = m*n - floor(m*n/4).

Mathematica

b[n_, m_] := m*n - Floor[m*n/4]; a:= Table[a[n, m], {n, 1, 25}, {m, 1, 25}]; Table[b[[k, n - k + 1]], {n, 1, 20}, {k, 1, n}] // Flatten (* G. C. Greubel, Dec 05 2017 *)
