FORMULA

G.f.: x(1+x)/(1-2x)^2. a(n)=(3n-1)2^(n-2).

E.g.f. exp(2x)(1+3x). The sequence 0, 1, 5, 16... has a(n)=((3n-1)2^n+0^n)/4 (offset 0). It is the binomial transform of A032766. The sequence 1, 5, 16... has a(n)=(2+3n)2^(n-1) (offset 0). It is the binomial transform of A016777. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jul 23 2003
