MAPLE

A002714:=-(7-9*z-9*z**2+3*z**3)/(-1+4*z-2*z**2-4*z**3+z**4); [Conjectured by S. Plouffe in his 1992 dissertation. It appears to be correct.]

T := proc(d, n) option remember ; if n = 1 then 1; else if d = 7 then T(d, n-1)+T(d-1, n-1) ; elif d = 1 then T(d, n-1)+T(d+1, n-1) ; else T(d-1, n-1)+T(d, n-1)+T(d+1, n-1) ; fi ; fi ; end: A002714 := proc(n) local d ; add( T(d, n), d=1..7) ; end: seq(A002714(n), n=1..35) ; - R.
