COMMENTS
The conjecture in A303540 has the following equivalent version: Each integer n > 1 can be written as the sum of two terms of the current sequence.
This has been verified for all n = 2..10^10.

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 1 with 0^2 + binomial(2*0,0) = 1.
a(7) = 10 with 2^2 + binomial(2*2,2) = 10.
a(8) = 11 with 3^2 + binomial(2*1,1) = 11.
