Comments

Superhighway created by 'LQTL Ant' L45R135L45R135 from iteration 233 where the Ant moves in a 'Moore neighborhood' (nine cells), the L indicates a left turn, the R a right turn, and the numerical value is the turn angle in degrees.

Formula

From Chai Wah Wu, May 30 2016: (Start)

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n > 1.

G.f.: (233 - 209*x)/(1 - x)^2. (End)

E.g.f.: (233 + 24*x)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, May 28 2019
