COMMENTS

Proof of 4-periodicity follows from evaluating (n+3)(n+4)(n+5)/12, subtracting (n-1)n(n+1)/12 and getting n^2+4n+5 which is an integer. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 07 2008

FORMULA

a(n)=1+[A000292(n-1) mod 2] = a(n-4). O.g.f.: -1-5/[4(x-1)]+1/[4(x+1)]-1/[2(x^2+1)] . - R. J. Mathar, Mar 07 2008

a(n)=(1/24)*{5*(n mod 4)+5*[(n+1) mod 4]+11*[(n+2) mod 4]-[(n+3) mod 4]}, with n>=0 - Paolo P. Lava, Mar 20 2008
