%N Number of lower triangular n X n arrays colored with integers 0 upwards introduced in row major order, with no element equal to any element at a city block distance of two, and containing the value n(n+1)/2-2.

%C Column 1 of A212036.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A212031/b212031.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..70</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/8)*n^4 + (1/4)*n^3 - (17/8)*n^2 + (19/4)*n - 2 for n>1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jul 20 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x^2*(3 - 5*x + 11*x^2 - 7*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x)^5.

%F a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>6.

%F (End)
