FORMULA

a(n)=(3/4)*(1+sqrt(2))^(n-1)+3/4*(1-sqrt(2))^(n-1)-1/2+3*0^n, with n>=0 [From Jaume Oliver Lafont, Sep 10 2009]

G.f.: (1-2*x-x^2+3*x^3)/(1-3*x+x^2+x^3) [From Jaume Oliver Lafont, Sep 09 2009]

a(0)=1, a(1)=1, a(2)=1, a(3)=4, a(n)=3*a(n-1)-a(n-2)-a(n-3) [From Harvey P. Dale, Nov 20 2011]

MATHEMATICA

Join[{1}, RecurrenceTable[{a[0]==a[1]==1, a[n]==2a[n-1]+a[n-2]+1}, a, {n, 30}]] (* or *) LinearRecurrence[{3, -1, -1}, {1, 1, 1, 4}, 30] (* From Harvey P. Dale, Nov 20 2011 *)

PROG

(PARI) rev(n)=cnt++; if(n<=2, n >= 0, rev(n-1); rev(n-2); rev(n-1); 1); for(n=0, 50, cnt=0; print(n" "rev(n)" "cnt))
