FORMULA
From R. J. Mathar, Mar 11 2011: (Start)
a(n+1) - a(n) = A156279(n).
G.f.: (3 + 5*x - 7*x^2) / ((x - 1)*(x^2 + x - 1)).
(End)
a(n) = A156279(n+1) - 1. - Bruno Berselli, Jul 27 2017
From Colin Barker, Jul 27 2017: (Start)
a(n) = 2^(-n)*(-2^n + 2*(1-sqrt(5))^(1+n) + 2*(1+sqrt(5))^(1+n)).
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-3) for n>2.
(End)
