FORMULA

a(n) = 3n^2-2n+1 = a(n-1)+6n-5 = 2a(n-1)-a(n-2)+6 = 3a(n-1)-3a(n-2)+a(n-3) = A056106(n)-n = A056107(n)-2n = A056108(n)-3n = A056109(n)-4n = A003215(n)-5n

a(n)=6*n+a(n-1)-11 (with a(1)=1) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 09 2009]

EXAMPLE

For n=2, a(2)=6*2+1-11=2; n=3, a(3)=6*3+2-11=9; n=4, a(4)=6*4+9-11=22 [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 09 2009]

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=3*n^2-2*n+1 /* Michael Somos Aug 03 2006 */

CROSSREFS

Cf. A054552 for example of square (or octagonal) spiral spoke.

A008810(3n-1)=A056109(-n)=a(n). - Michael Somos Aug 03 2006.
