COMMENTS
For the first of the corresponding eight consecutive positive integers, see A262075.
FORMULA
a(n) = 31*a(n-1)-31*a(n-2)+a(n-3) for n>3.
G.f.: -x*(x^2-30*x+113) / ((x-1)*(x^2-30*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
113 is in the sequence because 113^2 + ... + 119^2 (7 terms) = 94220 = 105^2 + ... + 112^2 (8 terms).
