Hi,

Aitzaz Imtiaz, first year computer science student, English speaker with an Urdu background is wanting someone to assist in preparing a submission to the OEIS and/or deciding if the sequence is suitable for submission.

I believe it is based on the following:


If anyone is prepared to assist Aitzaz, I can put you in touch.

Sean.

To avoid any sort of vanity here, I do not want to call it "bumping" or anything.

This is a consequence of: f(n)=\frac{(n+1) \times 2^{|n-\lceil\sqrt{n}\rceil \times(\lceil\sqrt{n}\rceil-1)-1|}}{2}

This question was also posted as a challenge on a sister network of stack exchange:

The sequence described in the link can also be described as follows:

In the triangle in A062111:
Disregard the bottom row and begin with the 1 at the beginning of the second row.
Now proceed across the triangle in the following manner:
1 step to the right, then 1 step up,
then 2 steps to the right, then 2 steps up,
then 3 steps to the right, then 3 steps up, etc.
