See A256944 for further information.
Union of even integers and A001333. - Ivan Neretin, Aug 04 2016

Examples

			5 is not in the sequence because 5^2 = 25 = 12 + 13 is the sum of two consecutive numbers both of which are not squares.
All even numbers are in the sequence because (2k)^2 = 4k^2 cannot be written as sum of two consecutive numbers and 2k^2 is not a square.
An odd number n is in the sequence if one of the two numbers next to n^2/2 is a square.

Equivalently, odd numbers such that neither of the two integers next to n^2/2 is a square.
Complement of A257282 = square roots of A256944.
The odd numbers missing here are 1, 3, 7, 17, 41, 99, ... = A078057 (see also A001333 = abs(A123335)).

Examples

			9 is a term because 9^2 = 81 = 40 + 41, neither of which are square.

Primes of the form A257282(k).
2 is in this sequence, and an odd prime p is in the sequence iff either (p^2 - 1)/2 or (p^2 + 1)/2 is a square. - Wolfdieter Lang, May 07 2015
According to the Neretin comment in A257282, and as the primes of A001333 are in A086395, this is (apart from the 2) the same as A086395. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 31 2024

Examples

			2 is in the sequence because it is prime and its square 4 is in A256944: 4 is not a sum of consecutive numbers.
3 is in the sequence because it is prime and its square 9 is in A256944: 9 = 2^2 + 5.
7 is in the sequence because it is prime and its square 49 is in A256944: 49 = 24 + 5^2.
5 is not in the sequence because neither 12 nor 13 is a square.
