%N a(n) is the number of odd integers divisible by 13 in the open interval (12*(n-1)^2, 12*n^2).

%C This sequence has the form (0+12k, 0+12k, 2+12k, 2+12k, 3+12k, 5+12k, 5+12k, 6+12k, 7+12k, 7+12k, 9+12k, 10+12k, 10+12k) for k >= 0.

%C Theorems: A) Generally for an interval (2*m*(n-1)^2,2*m*n^2) and a divisor d with 2*m < d there is a unique d-length form (e_i+2*m*k)_{i=0..d-1, k>=0} with e_i in [0,2*m]; here m = 6, d = 13.

%C B) Sum_{i=0..d-1}e_i = m*(d-2); here 66 = 6*(13-2).

%C Proof:

%C A) In d consecutive intervals

%C (2*m*(n-1)^2,2*m*(n+2)^2) there are m*d*(2*k+d) consecutive odd numbers and therefore m*(2*k+d) multiples of d where k=floor((n-1)/d).

%C B) With initial value a(0)=0 we have a(d)=2*m and thus Sum_{i=0..d-1} e_i = Sum_{i=1..d}a(i)-a(d) = m(2*0+d)-2*m = m*(d-2). Q.E.D.
