%C a(n) = A105723(n) + 2*(-1)^n; (a(n) + A105723(n))/2 = A000244(n). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Apr 18 2005

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_02">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (2,3).

%F a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2).

%F From _Elmo R. Oliveira_, Dec 18 2023: (Start)

%F G.f.: 2*(1-x)/((1+x)*(1-3*x)).

%F E.g.f.: exp(-x) + exp(3*x).

%F a(n) = 2*A046717(n). (End)
