%N Pascal's spiral: starting with a(1) = 1, proceed in a square spiral, computing each term as the sum of horizontally and vertically adjacent prior terms.

%C This is the square spiral analogy of Pascal's triangle thought of as a table read by antidiagonals.

%F a(A033638(n)) = a(A002620(n)) for n > 1.
