%C A066771 is an Hadamard matrix of order 4 and i is the imaginary unit. Any diagonal 
               entry of the matrix A^n is one of the four complex numbers (+ or 
               -)(X/5^n)(+ or -)(Y/(5^n)i). Then a(n) is the X in [A^n]_(j,j), j=1,
               2,3,4. - Simone Severini (ss54(AT)york.ac.uk), Apr 28 2004
%C A066771 Related to the (3,4,5) Pythagorean triple. Each unsigned term represents 
               a leg in a Pythagorean triple in which the hypotenuse = 5^n. E.g. 
               (3 + 4i)^3 = (-117 + 44i), considered as two legs of a triangle, 
               hypotenuse = 125 = 5^3. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com),

%F A066771 A(n)=5^n cos(2n arctan(1/2)). A recursive formula for T(n) = tan(2n arctan(1/
               2)) is T(n+1)=(4/3+T(n))/(1-4/3*T(n)). Unsigned A(n) is the absolute 
               value of denominator of T(n)
