FORMULA
From Chai Wah Wu, May 30 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-2*a(n-2)+2*a(n-3)-2*a(n-4)+2*a(n-5)-a(n-6) for n>6.
G.f.: x^2*(x^4 + x^2 + 2)/((x - 1)^2*(x^2 - x + 1)*(x^2 + x + 1)). (End)
a(n) = (8*n - 2*sqrt(3)*sin(Pi*(n+1)/3) + 2*sin(2*Pi*(n+1)/3)/sqrt(3) - 4)/6. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 30 2016
a(6k) = 8k-1, a(6k-1) = 8k-2, a(6k-2) = 8k-3, a(6k-3) = 8k-4, a(6k-4) = 8k-6, a(6k-5) = 8k-8. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 16 2016
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = 3*log(2)/4 - (sqrt(2)-1)*Pi/8. - Amiram Eldar, Dec 27 2021
