COMMENTS
The entries of the matrix are arranged in such a way that the determinant of the matrix is maximized.
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 608537 = A180128(4)/8 with the corresponding matrix shown in A180128.
a(2) = 837080: determinant (
[59 19 23 7]
[11 53 37 13]
[17 5 43 41]
[29 31 3 47]) = 6696640 = 8*837080.
