FORMULA
Partial sums of n-1 3-spaced triangular numbers, e.g., a(4) = t(1) + t(4) + t(7) = 1 + 10 + 28 = 39. - Jon Perry, Jul 23 2003
a(n) = C(2*n+1,3) + C(n+1,3), n >= 0. - Zerinvary Lajos, Jan 21 2007
a(n) = A000447(n) + A000292(n). - Zerinvary Lajos, Jan 21 2007
G.f.: x*(1+7*x+x^2) / (x-1)^4. - R. J. Mathar, Oct 08 2011
From Miquel Cerda, Dec 25 2016: (Start)
a(n) = A000578(n) + A135503(n).
a(n) = A007588(n) - A135503(n). (End)
E.g.f.: (x/2)*(2 + 9*x + 3*x^2)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 01 2017
