COMMENT

Write the integers in groups: 0; 1,2; 3,4,5; 6,7,8,9; ... and add the groups - Asher Auel (asher.auel(AT)reed.edu) Jan 06, 2000. Note that each group begins with a triangular number.

Number of edges of the line graph of the complete graph of order n, L(K_n) - Roberto E. Martinez II (remartin(AT)fas.harvard.edu), Jan 07 2002

Also the number of the total pips on a set of dominoes of type n. (A "3" domino set would have 0-0, 0-1, 0-2, 0-3, 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-2, 2-3, 3-3). - Gerard Schildberger (GerardS(AT)rrt.net), Jun 26 2003

Common sum in an (n+1) X (n+1) magic square with entries (0..n^2-1).

Alternate terms of A057587. - Jeremy Gardiner (jeremy.gardiner(AT)btinternet.com), Apr 10 2005

A027480=A007531/2 - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Jul 17 2006

If Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n>=5, a(n-5) is the number of 4-subsets of X which have exactly one element in common with Y. Also, if Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n>=5, a(n-5) is the number of (n-5)-subsets of X which have exactly one element in common with Y. - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Dec 28 2007

These numbers, starting with 3, are the denominators of the power series f(x)=(1-x)^2\ln(1/(1-x)), if the numerators are kept at 1. This sequence of denominators starts at the term x^3/3. [From Miklos Bona (bona(AT)math.ufl.edu), Feb 18 2009]
