Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N The first of 26 consecutive positive integers the sum of the squares of which is a square.
%C Positive integers y in the solutions to 2*x^2-52*y^2-1300*y-11050 = 0.
%C All sequences of this type (i.e. sequences with fixed offset k, and a discernible pattern: k=0...25 for this sequence, k=0...22 for A269447, k=0..1 for A001652) can be continued using a formula such as x(n) = a*x(n-p) - x(n-2p) + b, where a and b are various constants, and p is the period of the series. Alternatively 'p' can be considered the number of concurrent series. - _Daniel Mondot_, Aug 05 2016
