FORMULA

Let M = the Z/6Z = {0, 1, 2, 3,4,5} addition table considered as a matrix = {{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 0}, {2, 3, 4, 5, 0, 1}, {3, 4, 5, 0, 1, 2}, {4, 5, 0, 1, 2, 3}, {5, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}}. Then a(n) = 2nd term from left in M^n * [0,1,1,3,4,5].

MATHEMATICA

Clear[d, M, v, w, a] (* based on A095897 *) d = 6 (* general matrix*) M = Table[Mod[n + m, 6], {n, 0, d - 1}, {m, 0, d - 1}] (* count up start vector*) v = Table[n, {n, 0, d - 1}] {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} (* vector Markov*) w[n_] := MatrixPower[M, n].v a = Table[w[n][[1]], {n, 0, 20}]
