COMMENTS
| As n increases, this sequence is approximately geometric with common ratio r=lim(n->Infinity,a(n)/a(n-1))=(4+sqrt(15))^2=31+8*sqrt(15). - Ant King, Dec 15 2011

FORMULA
| From Ant King, Dec 15 2011: (Start)
a(n) = 63*a(n-1) - 63*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
a(n) = 62*a(n-1) - a(n-2) - 10.
a(n) = 1/60*((3*sqrt(15)-5)*(4+sqrt(15))^(2*n-1)-(3*sqrt(15)+5)*(4-sqrt(15))^(2*n-1)+10).
a(n) = ceiling(1/60*(3*sqrt(15)-5)*(4+sqrt(15))^(2*n-1)).
GF: x*(1-9*x-2*x^2)/((1-x)*(1-62*x+x^2)).
(End)
