%N The number of edges on a 2 by 1 ellipse formed by the straight line segments mutually connecting all points formed by dividing the ellipse into 2n equal angle sectors from its origin.

%C The terms are from numeric computation - no formula for a(n) is currently known.

%C See A341688 for a description of the ellipse and images of the regions, and A341762 for images of the vertices.

%H Wikipedia, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipse">Ellipse</a>.

%F a(n) = A341688(n) + A341762(n) - 1.
