COMMENTS
Number of binary pattern classes with 4 black beads in the (2,n)-rectangular grid; two patterns are in the same class if one of them can be obtained by reflection or rotation of the other one. - Yosu Yurramendi, Sep 12 2008
This sequence is the case k=n+3 of b(n,k) = n*(n+1)*((k-2)*n-(k-5))/6, which is the n-th k-gonal pyramidal number. Therefore, apart from 0, this sequence is the 3rd diagonal of the array in A080851. - Luciano Ancora, Apr 10 2015
