Self-inverse permutation of the natural numbers.
a(n) is a pairing function: a function that reversibly maps Z^{+} x Z^{+} onto Z^{+}, where Z^{+} is the set of integer positive numbers.
In general, let b(z) be a sequence of integers and denote number of antidiagonal table T(n,k) by z=n+k-1. Natural numbers placed in table T(n,k) by antidiagonals. The order of placement - by antidiagonal downwards, if b(z) is odd; by antidiagonal upwards, if b(z) is even. T(n,k) read by antidiagonals downwards. For A218890 -- the order of placement -- at the beginning m antidiagonals downwards, next m antidiagonals upwards and so on - b(z)=floor((z+m-1)/m). For this sequence b(z)=z^2 mod 3.

FORMULA
|
For the general case.
T(n,k) = (z*(z-1)-(-1+(-1)^b(z))*n+(1+(-1)^b(z))*k)/2, where z=n+k-1 (as a table).
a(n) = (z*(z-1)-(-1+(-1)^b(z))*i+(1+(-1)^b(z))*j)/2, where i=n-t*(t+1)/2, j=(t*t+3*t+4)/2-n, t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2), z=i+j-1 (as a linear sequence).
For this sequence b(z)=z^2 mod 3.
T(n,k) = (z*(z-1)-(-1+(-1)^(z^2 mod 3))*n+(1+(-1)^(z^2 mod 3))*k)/2, where z=n+k-1 (as a table).
a(n) = (z*(z-1)-(-1+(-1)^(z^2 mod 3))*i+(1+(-1)^(z^2 mod 3))*j)/2, where i=n-t*(t+1)/2, j=(t*t+3*t+4)/2-n, t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2), z=i+j-1 (as linear sequence).

...
Row r consists of r consecutive numbers from r*r/2-r/2+1 to r*r/2+r.
If r is not divisible by 3, rows are increasing.
If r is divisible by 3, rows are decreasing.
