* Problem 28 - Number spiral diagonals
*
* @see {@link https://projecteuler.net/problem=28}
*
* Starting with the number 1 and moving to the right in a clockwise direction a 5 by 5 spiral is formed as follows:
*
* 21 22 23 24 25
* 20 07 08 09 10
* 19 06 01 02 11
* 18 05 04 03 12
* 17 16 15 14 13
*
* 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 a 1001 by 1001 spiral formed in the same way?
