FORMULA
Euler transform of length 6 sequence [ -1, -1, -1, 0, 0, 1].
G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^2)) where f(u, v) = 2 * u * (1 - u) * (2 - v) - (v - u^2).
a(3*n) = 0 unless n=0. a(6*n + 1) = a(6*n + 2) = -1, a(6*n + 4) = a(6*n + 5) = a(0) = 1.
a(-n) = -a(n) unless n=0. a(n+3) = -a(n) unless n=0 or n=-3.
G.f.: (1 - x)^2 / (1 - x + x^2).
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 - x - x^2 + x^4 + x^5 - x^7 - x^8 + x^10 + x^11 - x^13 - x^14 + ...
