COMMENTS
For the first of the corresponding six consecutive positive integers, see A157096.
FORMULA
a(n) = 23*a(n-1)-23*a(n-2)+a(n-3) for n>3.
G.f.: -x*(x^2-22*x+61) / ((x-1)*(x^2-22*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
61 is in the sequence because 61^2 + ... + 65^2 = 19855 = 55^2 + ... + 60^2.
PROG
(PARI) Vec(-x*(x^2-22*x+61)/((x-1)*(x^2-22*x+1)) + O(x^40))
