COMMENT
|
From the NW corner to the SE corner, going the upper (or right) way, the edges have lengths n, n-1, ..., 2, 1, 1, 2, ..., n-1, n. Going the lower (or left) way, the edges have lengths n,1,n-1,2,...,2,n-1,1,n.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = [(2n^4+10n^3+13n^2+2n)/24], where [] denotes floor. (For even n there is no need for truncation. For odd n the [] removes 1/8.) A formula without [] is (4n^4+20n^3+26n^2+4n+3+3(-1)^(n+1))/48.
