COMMENTS
| As n increases, this sequence is approximately geometric with common ratio r = lim(n->Infinity,a(n)/a(n-1)) = (sqrt(5)+sqrt(6))^4 = 241+44*sqrt(30). - Ant King, Dec 30 2011

FORMULA
| G.f. x*(-1+138*x+7*x^2) / ( (x-1)*(x^2-482*x+1) ). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 21 2011
Contribution from Ant King, Dec 30 2011: (Start)
a(n) = 482*a(n-1)-a(n-2)-144.
a(n) = 1/60*((3*sqrt(5)+sqrt(6))*(sqrt(5)+sqrt(6))^(4n-3)+ (3*sqrt(5)-sqrt(6))*(sqrt(5)-sqrt(6))^(4n-3)+18).
a(n) = ceiling(1/60*(3*sqrt(5)+sqrt(6))*(sqrt(5)+sqrt(6))^(4n-3)). (End)
