FORMULA
From Bruno Berselli, Dec 05 2011: (Start)
G.f.: x^2*(2-x+3*x^2)/((1-x)^2*(1+x^2)).
a(n) = 2*(n-1)-(i^(n*(n+1))+1)/2, where i=sqrt(-1). (End)
From Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 04 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) + 2*a(n-3) - a(n-4) for n>4.
a(2k) = A047617(k), a(2k-1) = A047470(k). (End)
E.g.f.: (6 + sin(x) - cos(x) + (4*x - 5)*exp(x))/2. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jun 05 2016
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = (3-2*sqrt(2))*Pi/16 + 3*log(2)/8. - Amiram Eldar, Dec 21 2021
