%N a(n) = 2*(10^n - 1)/9.

%C a(n) = A178630(n)/A002283(n). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, May 31 2010

%C a(n) is also the total number of holes in a variation of a box fractal as in illustration. - _Kival Ngaokrajang_, May 23 2014 [As observed by _Hans Havermann_, this seems to be incorrect: e.g., for n = 2 the illustration shows 28 small holes plus two larger holes. - _M. F. Hasler_, Oct 05 2020]

%F From _Vincenzo Librandi_, Jul 22 2010: (Start)

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + 2*10^(n-1) with a(0) = 0.

%F a(n) = 11*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) with a(0) = 0, a(1) = 2. (End)

%F G.f.: 2*x/((1 - x)*(1 - 10*x)). - _Ilya Gutkovskiy_, Feb 24 2017

%F E.g.f.: 2*exp(x)*(exp(9*x) - 1)/9. - _Stefano Spezia_, Sep 13 2023
