%N A176594 a(n) = 5^(2^n).
%C A176594 Also the hypotenuse of primitive Pythagorean triangles obtained by repeated application of basic formula c(n)=p(n)^2+q(n)^2 starting p(0)=2, q(0)=1, see A100686, A098122. Example: a(2)=25 since starting (2,1) gives Pythagorean triple (3,4,5) using (3,4) as new generators gives triple (7,24,25) hypotenuse 25=a(2). - _Carmine Suriano_, Feb 04 2011
