%N Sequence is identical to its third differences: a(n+3) = 3*a(n+2) - 3*a(n+1) + 2*a(n), with a(0)=a(1)=1, a(2)=2.
%C The inverse binomial transform is 1,0,1,... repeated with period 3, essentially A011655. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 28 2023
%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_03">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (3,-3,2).
%F 3*a(n) = 2^(n+1) + A087204(n+1).
%F Also first differences of A024494.
%F G.f.: (1-2x+2x^2)/(1-3x+3x^2-2x^3).
%F Binomial transform of [1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, ...]; i.e., ones in positions 2, 5, 8, 11, ... and the rest zeros. [Corrected by _Gary W. Adamson_, Jan 07 2008]
