REFERENCES

Finding a closed form for the sum was Problem 541 in the Fall 2000 issue of The Pentagon (official journal of Kappa Mu Epsilon).

LINKS

Harry J. Smith, Table of n, a(n) for n=1,...,200

FORMULA

The closed form comes from starting with (1+x)^n and repeatedly differentiating and multiplying by x. After five differentiations, substitute x=1 and get a(n) = 2^(n-5)*n^2*(n^3+10n^2+15n-10)

MAPLE

with(combinat): for n from 1 to 70 do printf(`%d, `, sum(k^5*binomial(n, k), k=1..n)) od:
