%N A013643 Numbers n such that continued fraction for sqrt(n) has period 3.
%C A013643 All numbers of the form (5n+1)^2 + 4n + 1 for n>0 are elements of this 
               sequence. Numbers of the above form have the continued fraction expansion 
               [5n+1,[2,2,10n+2]]. General square roots of integers with period 
               3 continued fraction expansions have expansions of the form [n,[2m,
               2m,2n]]. - David Terr (David_C_Terr(AT)raytheon.com), Jun 15 2004
%D A013643 Kenneth H. Rosen, Elementary Number Theory and Its Applications, Addison-Wesley, 
               1984, page 426 (but beware of errors in this reference!)
%F A013643 The general form of these numbers is d = d(m, n) = a^2 + 4mn + 1, where 
               m and n are positive integers and a = a(m, n) = (4m^2 + 1)n + m, 
               for which the continued fraction expansion of sqrt(d) is [a;[2m, 
               2m, 2a]]. - David Terr (David_C_Terr(AT)raytheon.com), Jul 20 2004
