%N A030050 Numbers from the Conway-Schneeberger 15-theorem.
%C A030050 The 15-theorem asserts that a positive definite integral quadratic form represents all numbers iff it represents the numbers in this sequence. "Integral" here means that the quadratic form equals x^T M x, where x is an integer vector and M is an integer matrix. - _T. D. Noe_, Mar 30 2006
%C A030050 Union of the first five triangular numbers {1, 3, 6, 10, 15} and their Möbius transform {1, 2, 5, 7, 14}, in ascending order. - _Daniel Forgues_, Feb 24 2015
