COMMENTS

In general, let m be natural number. Table T(n,k)=max{m*n+k-m,n+m*k-m}. For m=1 the result is A002024, for m=2 the result is A204004, for m=3 the result is A204008. This sequence is result for m=4.

FORMULA

For the general case

a(n) = m*A002024(n) + (m-1)*max{-A002260(n),-A004736(n)}.

a(n) = m*(t+1) + (m-1)*max{t*(t+1)/2-n,n-(t*t+3*t+4)/2}

where t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2).

For m=4

a(n) = 4*(t+1) + 3*max{t*(t+1)/2-n,n-(t*t+3*t+4)/2}

where t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2).

EXAMPLE

m+1......m+2..2*m+2..3*m+2..4*m+2..5*m+2..6*m+2 ...

2*m+1..2*m+2..2*m+3..3*m+3..4*m+3..5*m+3..6*m+3 ...

3*m+1..3*m+2..3*m+3..3*m+4..4*m+4..5*m+4..6*m+4 ...

4*m+1..4*m+2..4*m+3..4*m+4..4*m+5..5*m+5..6*m+5 ...

5*m+1..5*m+2..5*m+3..5*m+4..5*m+5..5*m+6..6*m+6 ...

6*m+1..6*m+2..6*m+3..6*m+4..6*m+5..6*m+6..6*m+7 ...

. . .

The start of the sequence as triangle array read by rows for general case:

m+1, m+1;

2*m+1, m+2, 2*m+1;

3*m+1, 2*m+2, 2*m+2, 3*m+1;

4*m+1, 3*m+2, 2*m+3, 3*m+2, 4*m+1;

5*m+1, 4*m+2, 3*m+3, 2*m+4, 3*m+3, 4*m+2; 5*m+1;

6*m+1, 5*m+2, 4*m+3, 3*m+4, 2*m+5, 3*m+4, 4*m+3; 5*m+2, 6*m+1;

. . .

Row number r contains r numbers: r*m+1, (r-1)*m+2, ... (r-1)*m+2, r*m+1.
