Formula

a(n) = S(n, 227) = U(n, 227/2) = S(2*n+1, sqrt(229))/sqrt(229) with S(n, x) = U(n, x/2) Chebyshev's polynomials of the second kind, A049310. S(-1, x) = 0 = U(-1, x).

a(n) = 227*a(n-1)-a(n-2), n >= 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=227; a(-1):=0.

a(n) = (ap^(n+1) - am^(n+1))/(ap-am) with ap := (227+15*sqrt(229))/2 and am := (227-15*sqrt(229))/2 = 1/ap.

G.f.: 1/(1-227*x+x^2).
