%C For n>=1, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f: {1,2,...,n+1}->{1,2,3,4} such that Im(f) contains 2 fixed elements. - Aleksandar M. Janjic and _Milan Janjic_, Feb 27 2007

%C Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A and R be a relation on P(A) such that for all x, y of P(A), xRy if x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x. Then a(n+1) = |R|. [From _Ross La Haye_, Mar 19 2009]

%C Number of ordered (n+1)-tuples of positive integers, whose minimum is 0 and maximum 3. - _Ovidiu Bagdasar_, Sep 19 2014
