FORMULA

a(n) = sum_{i=0..n} A056571(i).

G.f.: x*(1+x)*(x^2-5*x+1)/ ( (x^2+3*x+1)*(x^2-7*x+1)*(x-1)^2 ). - Ralf Stephan, Apr 23 2004

a(n)=(1/25)*(F(4n+2)-(-1)^n*4*F(2n+1)+6n+3) where F(n)=A000045(n) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Sep 13 2004. [Corrected by David Lambert (dave.lambert(AT)comcast.net), Mar 28 2008]
