%N Numbers that are midway between the nearest square and the nearest cube.

%C The sequence of roots of nearest squares begins: 2, 5, 11, 14, 19, 22, 32, 37, 42, 47, 52, 59, 71, 76, 83, 90, 97, 104, 111, 118, 132, ...

%C The sequence of cube roots of nearest cubes begins: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, ... (Cf. A000037)

%C The sequence of k-k2 (equals k3-k) begins: 2, 1, 2, 10, -9, 14, -12, -19, -18, -6, 20, -53, -64, 28, -15, -50, -74, -84, -77, -50, ...

%C If we allow k2=k3 then first missing terms are 0, 1, 64, 729, 4096, ... . - _Zak Seidov_, Dec 10 2013
