Examples
a(1) = 8 because 8 is the smallest number with exactly 1 representation as a sum of 8 nonzero squares: 8 = 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2; a(2) = 23 because 23 is the smallest number with exactly 2 representations as a sum of 8 nonzero squares: 23 = 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 4^2 = 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 + 2^2, etc.
