COMMENT

a(n) is the number of complete squares that fit inside the circle with radius n+1/2, drawn on squared paper As n -> infinity, lim a(n)/(n^2) -> pi/4

FORMULA

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

EXAMPLE

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

MATHEMATICA

Table[4*Sum[Floor[Sqrt[(n + 1/2)^2 - k^2]], {k, 1, n}], {n, 0, 100}]

CROSSREFS

Cf. a(n) = 4 * A136484 = 2 * A136515 odd terms of A136485.
