COMMENT

The PARI functions t1, t2 can be used to read a triangular array T(n,k) (n >= 2, 1 <= k <= n-1) by rows from left to right: n -> T(t1(n), t2(n)). - Michael Somos, Aug 23, 2002

a(n) = A002260(n) + A004736(n)

Smallest integer such that n <= (a(n) choose 2). - Frank Ruskey (ruskey(AT)cs.uvic.ca), Nov 06 2007

FORMULA

a(n)=A002024(n-1)+1=round(sqrt(2*(n-1)))+1 - Antonio G. Astudillo (afg_astudillo(AT)lycos.com), Apr 21 2003

a(n) = ceiling( (1+sqrt(1+8n))/2 ). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Aug 28 2001 [Corrected by Frank Ruskey (ruskey(AT)cs.uvic.ca), Nov 06 2007]
