%C A256795 These are the numbers of consecutive positive traces when the minimal alternating squares representations for positive integers are written in order.  Is every term < 5?  The first term greater than 3 is a(116) = 4, corresponding to these 3 consecutive representations:
%C A256795 R(225) = 225;
%C A256795 R(226) = 256 - 36 + 9 - 4 + 1;
