%N A078475 Determinant of rank n matrix of 1..n^2 filled successively back and forth
along antidiagonals.
%C A078475 The matrix is formed by writing numbers 1 .. n^2 in zig-zag pattern as
shown in examples below. Every other antidiagonal reads backwards
from A069480.
%C A078475 Whereas each antidiagonal of A069480 begins with one more than a triangular
number and ends with the next triangular number, here every other
antidiagonal begins with one more than a triangular number and the
next antidiagonal begins with a triangular number.
