COMMENT

a(1) = 1, a(n+1) = sum of a(n) numbers beginning with a(n) + 1: a(2) = 2, a(3) = 3+4 = 7, a(4) = 8+9+...13+14 = 77. - Amarnath Murthy (amarnath_murthy(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 07 2005

FORMULA

a(n) = A007501(n)/3 = A005449(a(n-1)) - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Oct 03 2001

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 7 so a(4) = 7*(3*7+1)/2 = 7*22/2 = 77

MATHEMATICA

f[n_Integer] := n(3n + 1)/2; NestList[f, 2, 8]

PROGRAM
