%N A003215 Hex (or centered hexagonal) numbers: 3n(n+1)+1 (crystal ball sequence 
               for hexagonal lattice).
%C A003215 The hexagonal lattice is the familiar 2-dimensional lattice in which 
               each point has 6 neighbors. This is sometimes called the triangular 
               lattice.
%C A003215 Sixth spoke of hexagonal spiral (cf. A056105-A056109).
%C A003215 Number of ordered triples (a,b,c), -n<= a,b,c <=n, such that a+b+c=0 
               - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jun 14 2003
%C A003215 Also the number of partitions of 6n into at most 3 parts. - R. K. Guy, 
               Oct 20, 2003
%C A003215 Also, a(n) is the number of partitions of 6(n+1) into exactly 3 distinct 
               parts. - William J. Keith (keith(AT)math.psu.edu), Jul 01 2004

               period of length 5 {1, 7, 9, 7, 1}. Last two digits of Hex numbers 
               Mod[Hex[n], 100] are periodic with palindromic period of length 100. 
               - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Aug 11 2006
%C A003215 All divisors of a(n) are congruent to 1, modulo 6. Proof: If p is an 
               odd prime different from 3 then 3n^2 + 3n + 1 = 0 (mod p) implies 
               9(2n + 1)^2 = -3 (mod p), whence p = 1 (mod 6). - Nick Hobson Nov 
               13 2006

%F A003215 c(n)=3*n^2+3*n+1. Proof : 1) if n occurs once, it may be in 3 positions; 
               for the two other ones,n terms are independently possible, then we 
               have 3*n^2 different triples 2) If the term n occurs twice, the third 
               one may be placed in 3 positions and have n possible values, then 
               we have 3*n more different triples 3) The term n may occurs 3 times 
               in one way only That gives the formula. - Philippe Lalloouet (philip.lallouet(AT)wanadoo.fr),
