Table of n, a(n) for n=1..43.

Formula

G.f.: x*(3-3*x+2*x^2)/(1-x)^4.

a(1) = 0; a(n) = sum_{j=1..n-1} A059100(j) = a(n-1) + (n-1)^2 + 2 for n > 1.

Example

a(2) = a(1) + 1^2 + 2 = 0 + 1 + 2 = 3; a(3) = a(2) + 2^2 + 2 = 3 + 4 + 2 = 9.

Mathematica

lst={0}; s=0; Do[s+=n^2+2; AppendTo[lst, s], {n, 5!}]; lst

Prog

(PARI) {a=-2; for(n=0, 42, print1(a=a+n^2+2, ", "))}
