COMMENTS

Sixth binomial transform of A048879.

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/a(n-1) = 8+sqrt(5) = 10.236067977499789696....

FORMULA

a(n) = 16*a(n-1)-59*a(n-2) for n>1; a(0)=0, a(1)=1. G.f.: x/(1-16*x+59*x^2). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jan 03 2009]

MATHEMATICA

Join[{a=1, b=16}, Table[c=16*b-59*a; a=b; b=c, {n, 40}]] (*From Vladimir Joseph Stephan Orlovsky, Feb 08 2011*)
