%N Numbers n such that n^2 + 1 is divisible by a 4th power.

%C Includes all n == 182 or 443 (mod 625). In particular, the sequence has positive asymptotic density. # _Robert Israel_, Oct 06 2016

%e 239 is in the sequence because 239^2+1 = 57122 = 2*13^4;

%e 27493 is in the sequence because 27493^2+1 = 755865050 = 2*5^2*17^4*181.
