FORMULA

a(n)=24*n+a(n-1)-39 (with a(1)=0) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 14 2009]

EXAMPLE

The spiral begins:

......16..15..14

....17..5...4...13

..18..6...0...3...12

19..7...1...2...11..26

..20..8...9...10..25

....21..22..23..24

For n=2, a(2)=24*2+0-39=9; n=3, a(3)=24*3+9-39=42; n=4, a(4)=24*4+42-39=99 [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 14 2009]

MATHEMATICA

s=0; lst={s}; Do[s+=n++ +9; AppendTo[lst, s], {n, 0, 8!, 24}]; lst [From Vladimir Orlovsky (4vladimir(AT)gmail.com), Nov 17 2008]

CROSSREFS
