COMMENT

Also: Records sequence of A100181.

The last (rightmost) term in the n'th row of triangle A120070 is A005408(n).

FORMULA

First differences: a(n+1)-a(n)=A142954(n).

a(n)=(n+1)^2-1 =A000466((n+1)/2) if n odd. a(n)= (n+1)^2-4 =A078371(n/2-1) if n even. a(n) = 2*a(n-1) -2*a(n-3) +a(n-4). G.f.: x(3-x+5x^2-3x^3)/((1+x)(1-x)^3). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Oct 24 2008
