FORMULA

Contribution from Artur Jasinski (grafix(AT)csl.pl), Oct 03 2008: (Start)

Recurrence: a(n+1)=a(n)^3+3*a(n) and a(0)=5

or

a(n)=Table[Round[(5/2 + Sqrt[29]/2)^(3^(n - 1))], {n, 1, 8}] (*Artur Jasinski*) (End)

MATHEMATICA

Contribution from Artur Jasinski (grafix(AT)csl.pl), Oct 03 2008: (Start)

a = {}; k = 5; Do[AppendTo[a, k]; k = k^3 + 3 k, {n, 1, 8}]; a

or

Table[Round[(5/2 + Sqrt[29]/2)^(3^(n - 1))], {n, 1, 8}] (*Artur Jasinski*) (End)
