Comments

Also the Engel expansion of exp(1/7); cf. A006784 for the Engel expansion definition. - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 03 2002

Complement of A047304; A082784(a(n))=1; A109720(a(n))=0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 30 2009

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,-1).

Formula

(floor(a(n)/10) - 2*(a(n) mod 10)) == 0 modulo 7, see A076309. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Oct 06 2002

a(n) = 7*n = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-2); G.f.: 7*x/(x-1)^2. - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 24 2010

E.g.f.: 7*x*exp(x). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 11 2016

Example

For n=2, a(2)=14 because 14 is the most likely sum (of the possible sums 4, 5, ..., 24) to occur when tossing 2 pairs of six-sided dice. - Dennis P. Walsh, Jan 26 2012
