%F G.f.: -(x+1)*(x^2-16*x-15) / ((x^2-8*x+1)*(x^2+8*x+1)). - _Vincenzo Librandi_, Nov 02 2013, simplified by _Colin Barker_, Dec 28 2013

%F From _Gerry Martens_, Jul 11 2015: (Start)

%F Interspersion of 2 sequences [a0(n),a1(n)]:

%F a0(n) = ((-15-4*sqrt(15))/(31+8*sqrt(15))^n+(-15+4*sqrt(15))*(31+8*sqrt(15))^n)/2.

%F a1(n) = (1/(31+8*sqrt(15))^n+(31+8*sqrt(15))^n)/2. (End)
