Table of n, a(n) for n=0..29.

FORMULA

a(n) = A000079(n)*5 - 2 = A020714(n) - 2. [From Omar E. Pol, Dec 23 2008]

a(n)=2*(a(n-1)+1) with a(0)=3 [From Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 06 2010]

a(n) = A123208(2*n+1) = A048487(n)+2 = A131051(n+2) = A153894(n)-1. - Philippe Deléham, Apr 15 2013

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 5*2^4 - 2 = 80 - 2 = 78.

a(1)=2*(3+1)=8; a(2)=2*(8+1)=18; a(3)=2*(18+1)=38 [From Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 06 2010]

MATHEMATICA

a=3; lst={a}; k=5; Do[a+=k; AppendTo[lst, a]; k+=k, {n, 0, 5!}]; lst [From Vladimir Joseph Stephan Orlovsky, Dec 15 2008]

CROSSREFS

a(n) = A118654(n, 5).

Cf. A000079, A020714. [From Omar E. Pol, Dec 23 2008]
