COMMENTS
Sequences of the type n^2 == 2 (mod m) are basically defined for each m of A057126. See A047341 (m=7), A113804 (m=14), A155449 (m=17), A155450 (m=23), A158803 (m=41) etc. - R. J. Mathar, Aug 26 2009

FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3).
a(n) = (31+(-1)^(n-1)+62(n-1))/4.
G.f.: x*(8+15*x+8*x^2)/((1+x)*(x-1)^2). - R. J. Mathar, Aug 26 2009
a(n) = 31*(n-1)-a(n-1) with n>1, a(1)=8. - Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 30 2010
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = tan(15*Pi/62)*Pi/31. - Amiram Eldar, Feb 28 2023
EXAMPLE
At n= 4, a(4)=(31-1+186)/4=54. At n=5, a(5)=(31+1+248)/4=70.
