FORMULA

G.f.: -x^6(2x^7-4x^6+36x^5-29x^4-72x^3-411x^2-231x-20)/((1-x)^7).

a(n)=81/80n^6-405/16n^5+4113/16n^4-21267/16n^3+140357/40n^2-7587/2n, n>6.

MAPLE

rr := n - >81/80*n^6 - 405/16*n^5 + 4113/16*n^4 - 21267/16*n^3 + 140357/40*n^2 - 7587/2*n; seq(rr(n), n=7..40);

A000564:=(-20-231*z-411*z**2-72*z**3-29*z**4+36*z**5-4*z**6+2*z**7)/(z-1)**7; [Conjectured by S. Plouffe in his 1992 dissertation.]
