%N Hexanacci numbers: a(n+1) = a(n)+...+a(n-5) with a(0)=...=a(4)=0, a(5)=1.
%C 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_, Apr 01 2002
%C Number of permutations satisfying -k<=p(i)-i<=r, i=1..n-5, with k=1, r=5. - _Vladimir Baltic_, Jan 17 2005
%C 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_, Jan 17 2005
%C 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]
