COMMENT

A square of side a(n) has a(n+1) as integer part of its diagonal. - Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Mar 03 2005

Starting the sequence with 0, 1 or 2 would be rather dull.

EXAMPLE

A 3 X 3 square has a diagonal of 4.242640687119285...; int. part is "4";

a 4 X 4 square has a diagonal of 5.656854249492381...; int. part is "5";

a 5 X 5 square has a diagonal of 7.071067811865475...; int. part is "7";

a 7 X 7 square has a diagonal of 9.899494936611665...; int. part is "9";

a 9 X 9 square, etc.
