%N a(n) = 2 * ceiling(n*((n^2)!^(1/n))).

%C This sequence is suggested by taking m = n (the square table case) in the formula for the lower bound for the minimization problem discussed at the Alpern link.

%C Original formula was corrected because the minimization is done for both product of rows and product of columns, so their sum is always even.
