COMMENTS
| a(n-5) is the number of ways of throwing n with an unstated number of standard dice and so the row sum of A061676; for example a(9)=8 is the number of ways of throwing a total of 4: 4, 3+1, 2+2, 1+3, 2+1+1, 1+2+1, 1+1+2 and 1+1+1+1; if order did not distinguish partitions (i.e. the dice were indistinguishable) then this would produce A001402 instead. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Apr 01 2002
Number of permutations satisfying -k<=p(i)-i<=r, i=1..n-5, with k=1, r=5. - Vladimir Baltic (baltic(AT)matf.bg.ac.yu), Jan 17 2005
a(n)=number of compositions of n-5 with no part greater than 6. Example: a(12)=63 because we have 63 compositions of 7: 7=1+1+1+1+1+1+1=2+1+1+1+1+1=...=2+2+1+1+1=...=2+2+2+1=...=3+1+1+1+1=... =3+2+1+1=...=3+2+2=...=3+3+1=...=4+1+1+1=...=4+2+1=...=4+3=3+4=5+1+1 =1+5+1=1+1+5=5+2=2+5=6+1=1+6 - Vladimir Baltic (baltic(AT)matf.bg.ac.yu), Jan 17 2005
For n>=0: a(n+5) is the number of binary strings with length n where at most 5 ones are consecutive, see fxtbook link below. [Joerg Arndt, Apr 08 2011]

FORMULA
| x^5/(1 - x - x^2 - x^3 - x^4 - x^5 - x^6)
Another form of the g.f.: f(z)=(z^5-z^6)/(1-2*z+z^7); then a(n)=sum((-1)^i*binomial(n-5-6*i,i)*2^(n-5-7*i),i=0..floor((n-5)/7))-sum((-1)^i*binomial(n-6-6*i,i)*2^(n-6-7*i),i=0..floor((n-6)/7)) with sum(alpha(i),i=m..n)=0 for m>n. [From Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Feb 22 2010]
sum_{k=0..5*n} A001592(k+b)*A063260(n,k) = A001592(6*n+b), b>=0.
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-7) with initial values 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1. [From Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 19 2010]
