FORMULA
| G.f.: 3x/(1-16x+x^2).
a(n) = 15*(a(n-1)+a(n-2))-a(n-3). a(n) = 17*(a(n-1)-a(n-2))+a(n-3). - Mohamed Bouhamida (bhmd95(AT)yahoo.fr), Sep 20 2006
a(n)=(1/14)*sqrt(7)*[8+3*sqrt(7)]^n-(1/14)*[8-3*sqrt(7)]^n*sqrt(7), with n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Oct 02 2008]
a(n) = 16*a(n-1) - a(n-2) with a(1)=0 and a(2)=3. - Sture Sjöstedt, Nov 18 2011
