%N a(n) is the number immediately above n in a clockwise square spiral of the positive integers with the first step to the right.

%C Equivalently the number immediately below n in a counterclockwise spiral of the positive integers with the first step to the right.

%C This is a permutation of the positive integers. A334752 is the inverse permutation.
