Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 24,... and the parallel line from 1, in the direction 1, 69,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized 24-gonal numbers. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 18 2012
This is also a star dodecagonal number: a(n) = A051624(n) + 12*A000217(n-1). - Luciano Ancora, Mar 30 2015

FORMULA
a(n) = 22*n+a(n-1)-21, with n>0, a(0)=0. - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 06 2010
G.f.: x*(1+21*x)/(1-x)^3. - Colin Barker, Jan 10 2012
a(22*a(n)+232*n+1) = a(22*a(n)+232*n) + a(22*n+1). - Vladimir Shevelev, Jan 24 2014
Product_{n>=2} (1 - 1/a(n)) = 11/12. - Amiram Eldar, Jan 22 2021
E.g.f.: exp(x)*(x + 11*x^2). - Nikolaos Pantelidis, Feb 05 2023
