%F Let G******(x) denote the o.g.f. of sequence A******.
%F For n >= 1 , a(n) = (5/2) * [x^n] G006013(x)^n.
%F For n >= 1, a(n) = [x^n] (1 + x)^(5*n) = (5/4) * [x^n] (1/(1 - x))^(4*n) = (5/3) * [x^n] G000108(x)^(3*n) = (5/2) * [x^n] G001764(x)^(2*n) = 5 * [x^n] G002293(x)^n.
%F a(n) = 5 * [x^n] (1 - G006632(x))^(-n) = (5/2) * [x^n] (1 - x*G006013(x))^(-2*n) = (5/3) * [x^n] (1 - x*G000108(x))^(-3*n) (apply Concrete Mathematics, equation 5.60, p. 201). (End)
