Examples
First, write ....8....16..24..32..40..48..56..64..72..80.. (8i) 1..4..9..16...25...36......49....64.......81 (squares) Then replace each number by its rank, where ties are settled by ranking 8i after the square: p=(3,6,7,9,11,12,14,16,17,..)=A186348=a(n). q=(1,2,4,5,8,10,13,15,19,...)=A186349=n+floor((n^2-1)/8).
