A163257 An interspersion: the order array of the even-numbered columns (after swapping the first two rows) of the double interspersion at A161179.
1, 5, 2, 11, 6, 3, 19, 12, 8, 4, 29, 20, 15, 10, 7, 41, 30, 24, 18, 14, 9, 55, 42, 35, 28, 23, 17, 13, 71, 56, 48, 40, 34, 27, 22, 16, 89, 72, 63, 54, 47, 39, 33, 26, 21, 109, 90, 80, 70, 62, 53, 46, 38, 32, 25, 131, 110, 99, 88, 79, 69, 61, 52, 45, 37, 31, 155, 132, 120, 108

Examples
Corner: 1....5...11...19 2....6...12...20 3....8...15...24 4...10...18...28 The double interspersion A161179 begins thus: 1....4....7...12...17...24 2....3....8...11...18...23 5....6...13...16...25...30 9...10...19...22...33...38 Expel the odd-numbered columns and then swap rows 1 and 2, leaving 3....11...23...39 4....12...24...40 6....16...30...48 10...22...38...58 Then replace each of those numbers by its rank when all the numbers are jointly ranked.

Formula
Let S(n,k) denote the k-th term in the n-th row. Four cases:
S(1,k)=k^2+k-1
S(2,k)=k^2+k
if n>1 is odd, then S(n,k)=k^2+(n-1)k+(n-1)(n-3)/4
if n>2 is even, then S(n,k)= k^2+(n-1)k+n(n-4)/4.
