%e A383084 For both n = 0 and n = 1, the a(0) = a(1) = 2 points are the initial points: (0,0) and (1,0).
%e A383084 For n = 2, the a(2) = 6 points are the two above points along with (-1,0), (2,0), (1/2,-sqrt(3)/2), and (1/2,sqrt(3)/2):
%e A383084   (-1,0): formed by intersecting the line between (0,0) and (1,0) with the circle of radius 1 centered at (0,0).
%e A383084   (2,0): formed by intersecting the line between (0,0) and (1,0) with the circle of radius 1 centered at (1,0).
%e A383084   (1/2,-sqrt(3)/2), and (1/2,sqrt(3)/2): formed by intersecting the circle of radius 1 centered at (0,0) with the circle of radius 1 centered at (1,0).
