FORMULA
From Roman Witula, May 16 2014: (Start)
a(n) = (1/2)*Sum_{k=0..2}(1 - 1/sqrt(7)*cot(2^k * alpha))* (2*sin(2^k * alpha))^(2n), where alpha := 2*Pi/7.
a(n) = (A215007(n) + A215008(n+1) - 2*A215008(n))/2. (End)
a(n) = binomial(2*n-1, n-1) + Sum_{k=1..n} (-1)^k*binomial(2*n, n+7*k). - Greg Dresden, Jan 28 2023
