FORMULA
a(n) = (54*n^7 - 1057*n^6 + 7245*n^5 - 24535*n^4 + 45801*n^3 - 47488*n^2 + 25020*n - 5040)/7!.
G.f.: (z^4 + 23*z^3 + 40*z^2 - 2*z - 8)/(z-1)^8.
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 28*a(n-2) + 56*a(n-3) - 70*a(n-4) + 56*a(n-5) - 28*a(n-6) + 8*a(n-7) - a(n-8).
a(n) - 7*a(n-1) + 21*a(n-2) - 35*a(n-3) + 35*a(n-4) - 21*a(n-5) + 7*a(n-6) - a(n-7) = 2*27.
