%N Multiples of 3 and of 4 interleaved: a(2*n-1) = 3*n, a(2*n) = 4*n.

%C First differences of A195020.

%C a(n) is also the length of the n-th edge of a square spiral in which the first two edges are the legs of the primitive Pythagorean triple [3, 4, 5]. The spiral contains infinitely many Pythagorean triples in which the hypotenuses are the positives A008587. Zero together with partial sums give A195020; the vertices of the spiral.
