COMMENT

The first row of the array is the sum of 3 consecutive triangular numbers = A000217(n) + A000217(n+1) + A000217(n+2) = Centered triangular numbers: 3*n*(n-1)/2 + 1, for n>1. The second row of the array is the sum of 3 consecutive squares = Number of points on surface of square pyramid: 3*n^2 + 2 (n>1). The first column of the array is k+1 = 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, ... The second column of the array is A016825 = 4*n + 2 (for n>2). The third column of the array is A017377 = 10*n + 9 (for n>0).

FORMULA

a(n) = A[n+2,n] = P(k+2,n) + P(k+2,n+1) + P(k+2,n+2) where P(k,n) = k*((n-2)*k - (n-4))/2.
