Comments

This is to n-th centered n-gonal numbers (A100119) as A101357 is to n-th n-gonal numbers (A060354). a(2) = 3 and a(4) = 29 are primes. a(39) = 284089 = 13^2 * 41^2.

Examples

			a(41) = 1 + 2 + 7 + 19 + 41 + 76 + 127 + 197 + 289 + 406 + 551 + 727 + 937 + 1184 + 1471 + 1801 + 2177 + 2602 + 3079 + 3611 + 4201 + 4852 + 5567 + 6349 + 7201 + 8126 + 9127 + 10207 + 11369 + 12616 + 13951 + 15377 + 16897 + 18514 + 20231 + 22051 + 23977 + 26012 + 28159 + 30421 + 32801 + 35302 = 382613.
