Statement

 Goal

Given a matrix of shape N×N arranged in a "spiral", with its numbers spiralling from 1 to N² inward, what is the sum of its diagonals? See examples to clarify what a spiral is.

Example 1:
The input: 3
Gives the following spiral:
1     2     3 
8 9 4
7 6 5
The sum of the diagonals is:
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = 25


Example 2:
The input: 4
Gives the following spiral:
1    2      3     4
12 13 14 5
11 16 15 6
10 9 8 7
The sum of the diagonals is:
1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 15 + 16 = 80
Input
N the number of layers of the spiral
Output
S the sum of the diagonals
Constraints
0 < N < 1500
0 < S < 2^32 - 1
Example
Input
5
Output
133
