COMMENTS

Sequence of successive positive integers k in which if k is odd then k appears k times, otherwise if k is even then k appears k/2 times.
Note that an arrangement of the blocks of this sequence shows the growth of the generalized pentagonal numbers A001318 (see example).
The sums of each block give the positive integers of A129194: 1, 2, 9, 8, 25, 18, 49,...
Partial sums of A080995. - Paolo P. Lava, Aug 23 2011.
Concatenations of rows of triangles A001650 and A111650; also, seen as a flat list, the row lengths of triangle A260672 and the first differences of its row sums (cf. A260706). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 17 2015
Also a(n) = number of squares in the arithmetic progression {24k + 1: 0 <= k <= n-1} [Granville]. - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 13 2017

FORMULA
|
a(n) = sqrt(8n/3) plus or minus 1 [Granville] - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 13 2017
If 8 <= n <= 52, then a(n-1) < a(n) if and only if n is in A221672. - Jonathan Sondow, Dec 14 2017

EXAMPLE
|
a) If written as a triangle the initial rows are
1, 2,
3, 3, 3, 4, 4,
5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6,
7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8,
9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10,
...
Row sums give A126587.
b) An application using the blocks of this sequence: the illustration of the growth of an arrangement which represents the generalized pentagonal numbers A001318. For example; the first 9 positive initial terms: 1, 2, 5, 7, 12, 15, 22, 26, 35.
