%N Number of points in square lattice covered by a disc centered at (0,0) as its radius increases.

%C Useful for rasterizing circles.

%C Conjecture: the number of lattice points in a quadrant of the disk is equal to A000592(n-1). - _L. Edson Jeffery_, Feb 10 2014

%e a(2)=5 because (0,0); (0,1); (0,-1); (1,0); (-1,0) are covered by any disc of radius between 1 and sqrt(2).

%t max = 100; A001481 = Select[Range[0, 4*max], SquaresR[2, #] != 0 &]; Table[SquaresR[2, A001481[[n]]], {n, 1, max}] // Accumulate (* _Jean-François Alcover_, Oct 04 2013 *)

%Y Cf. A004018, A004020, A005883, A057962. Distinct terms of A057655.

%Y Cf. A000404, A001481, A232499.
