Original name: Areas of Pythagorean triangles (X, Y, Z = Y + 1) with X^2 + Y^2 = Z^2.

This sequence is related to A028896 by a(n) = n*A028896(n) - Sum_{i = 0..n-1} A028896(i) and this is the case d = 3 in the identity n*(d*(d+1)*n*(n+1)/4) - Sum_{i = 0..n-1} d*(d+1)*i*(i+1)/4 = d*(d+1)*n*(n+1)*(2*n+1)/12. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 31 2012
Also sums of rows of natural numbers (cf. A001477) seen as triangle with an odd numbers of terms per row, see example. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 24 2013
Without mentioning the connection to Pythagorean triangles, Bolker (1967) gives it as an exercise to prove that these numbers are always divisible by 6. This is easy to prove from the formula that he gives, n(n - 1)(2n - 1): obviously either n or (n - 1) must be even; then, if n is congruent to 2 mod 3 it means that (2n - 1) is a multiple of 3, otherwise either n or (n - 1) is a multiple of 3; thus both prime divisors of 6 are accounted for in a(n). - Alonso del Arte, Oct 13 2013
a(n) = n*(n+1)*(n+(n+1)) is the product of two consecutive integers multiplied by the sum of those two consecutive integers. - Charles Kusniec, Sep 04 2022

Original definition: Number of permutations with no hits on 2 main diagonals. (Identical to definition of A000316.) - M. F. Hasler, Sep 27 2015
Card-matching numbers (Dinner-Diner matching numbers): A deck has n kinds of cards, 2 of each kind. The deck is shuffled and dealt in to n hands with 2 cards each. A match occurs for every card in the j-th hand of kind j. A(n) is the number of ways of achieving no matches. The probability of no matches is A(n)/((2n)!/2!^n).
Also, Penrice's Christmas gift numbers (see Penrice 1991).
a(n) is the maximal number of totally mixed Nash equilibria in games of n players, each with 3 pure options. - Raimundas Vidunas, Jan 22 2014

Examples

			There are 297 ways of achieving zero matches when there are 2 cards of each kind and 4 kinds of card so a(4)=297.
