FORMULA
|
a(n) = n*(n+1)/2 - int(sqrt(n*(n+1)/2))^2.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
n = 5: A000217(5) = 28, largest square below that is 25, so a(5) = 28-25 = 3
|
|
MAPLE
|
seq(n*(n+1)/2-floor(sqrt(n*(n+1)/2))^2, n=0..100);
|
|
PROGRAM
|
(PARI) { default(realprecision, 100); for (n=1, 1000, t=n*(n + 1)/2; a=t - floor(sqrt(t))^2; write("b064784.txt", n, " ", a) ) } [From Harry J. Smith (hjsmithh(AT)sbcglobal.net), Sep 25 2009]
