|
||
Starting with the number 1 and moving to the right in a clockwise direction a 5 by 5 spiral is formed as follows:
|
||
|
||
<div style='padding-left: 4em;'>
|
||
<div style='color: red; display: inline;'>21</div> 22 23 24 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>25</div><br>
|
||
20 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>7</div> 8 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>9</div> 10<br>
|
||
19 6 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>1</div> 2 11<br>
|
||
18 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>5</div> 4 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>3</div> 12<br>
|
||
<div style='color: red; display: inline;'>17</div> 16 15 14 <div style='color: red; display: inline;'>13</div><br>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
It can be verified that the sum of the numbers on the diagonals is 101.
|
||
|
||
What is the sum of the numbers on the diagonals in an `n` by `n` spiral formed in the same way?
|
||
|

# --hints--
|
||
|
||
`spiralDiagonals(101)` should return a number.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert(typeof spiralDiagonals(101) === 'number');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`spiralDiagonals(101)` should return 692101.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert(spiralDiagonals(101) == 692101);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`spiralDiagonals(303)` should return 18591725.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert(spiralDiagonals(303) == 18591725);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`spiralDiagonals(505)` should return 85986601.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert(spiralDiagonals(505) == 85986601);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`spiralDiagonals(1001)` should return 669171001.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert(spiralDiagonals(1001) == 669171001);
|
||
```

return sum;

};
