COMMENT

a(n) is the number of complete squares that fit inside the circle with diameter n, drawn on squared paper As n -> infinity, lim a(n)/(n^2) -> pi/4

FORMULA

a(n) = 4 * Sum floor(sqrt((n/2)^2 - k^2)), k = 1 .... floor(n/2)

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 4 because a circle centered at the origin and of radius 3/2 encloses (-1,-1),(-1,1),(1,-1),(1,1)

MATHEMATICA

Table[4*Sum[Floor[Sqrt[(n/2)^2 - k^2]], {k, 1, Floor[n/2]}], {n, 1, 100}]

CROSSREFS

Cf. a(n) = 4 * A136483 = 2 * A136513 alternating merge of A136485 and A119677.
