%N A033954 n*(4*n+3). Also, second 10-gonal (or decagonal) numbers.
%C A033954 Write 0,1,2,... in clockwise spiral; sequence gives numbers on positive 
               x axis.
%C A033954 The equations 1 + 2 = 3 and 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 set the stage for considering 
               whether it is also true that 5^3 + 6^3 = 7^3 and 7^4 + 8^4 = 9^4. 
               Reflecting on Fermat's Last Theorem or resorting to a calculator 
               dispels any hope that either of the two equations could be correct. 
               However, it is true that 5^3 + 6^3 + 2 = 7^3 and 7^4 + 8^4 + 64 = 
               9^4. More significantly, each of these equations is the first of 
               an infinite sequence of equations featuring consecutive integers 
               that conform to the spirit of the equations mentioned in A000384. 
               For n>0, a(n)^4+(a(n)+1)^4 +...+(a(n)+n)^4 +(4*A000217(n))^3 = (a(n)+n+1)^4+...+(a(n)+2n)^4; 
               e.g., 7^4+8^4+(4*1)^3=9^4; 22^4+23^4+24^4+(4*3)^3=25^4+26^4; see
