COMMENTS
The formula for the singular sequence, i.e., just each unique term of the sequence (without duplication), is: a(n) = 1/10 (16-(-4)^n). - Harvey P. Dale, Jun 12 2013
FORMULA
a(2n) = a(2n+1) = 2*(-1)^n*A109499(n).
G.f. ( -2-6*x^2 ) / ( (x-1)*(4*x^2+1) ). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 06 2011
a(0)=2, a(1)=2, a(2)=0, a(n) = a(n-1)-4*a(n-2)+4*a(n-3). - Harvey P. Dale, Jun 12 2013
