G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..500
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (-7,8).
FORMULA
a(n) = (-8)*a(n-1) + 16 for n>=1, with a(0) = 1.
a(n) = 8*a(n-2) - 7*a(n-1), a(0)=1, a(1)=8.
G.f.: (1+15x)/(1+7x-8x^2).
a(n) = Sum_{0<=k<=n} A112555(n,k)*7^(n-k).
From G. C. Greubel, Apr 07 2016: (Start)
a(n) = -7*a(n-1) + 8*a(n-2).
E.g.f.: (1/9)*(16*exp(x) - 7*exp(-8*x)). (End)
