Numbers k such that A068527(k) is a square. k is in the sequence if and only if k - ceiling(sqrt(k))^2 + ceiling(sqrt(ceiling(sqrt(k))^2 - k))^2 = 0.
A000290 is a subsequence since for a square k, ceiling(sqrt(k))^2 - k = 0, a square too.
Also, numbers k such that A249298(k) is 1.
Also, numbers k such that A249142(k) is 0.
The only prime numbers in the sequence are 3 and 5.
No number from A016825 appears in the sequence.
If p and q are terms of A065091 and if q satisfies the inequality p - 2*sqrt(2p) + 2 < q < p + 2*sqrt(2p) + 2, then p*q is in the sequence. Thus infinitely many numbers from A046315 appear in the sequence.

Examples

			Ceiling(sqrt(27))^2 - 27 = 9 = 3^2, so 27 is in the sequence.
