%N A046178 Indices of pentagonal numbers which are also hexagonal.
%C A046178 The reason is that we obtain the same Diophantine equation with various 
               parameters is the following: the number which is written 361 in base 
               4*A046179(n)-2 is the square of 6*A046178(n)-1. That is, 361 in base 
               110770 is 3*110770^2+6*110770+1=36810643321 i.e. the square of 191861 
               if we consider the third terms of A046179 and A046178 which are 27693 
               and 31977 respectively. - Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr),
