OEIS A00024: Population of the quadratic form x^2 + 10y^2

We explore A00024, the sequence counting how many integers can be written as x^2 + 10y^2 within ranges up to 2^n. We trace its connection to the population of a quadratic form, Landau's theorem, and the work of Shanks and Schmid, then examine the PARI code provided in the OEIS entry to generate the sequence yourself.
