FORMULA

a(n) = round((8*2^n-18*n-9)/36).

a(n) = floor((4*2^n-9*n+2)/18).

a(n) = ceil((4*2^n-9*n-11)/18).

a(n) = round((4*2^n-9*n-4)/18).

a(n) = a(n-6) + 7*2^(n-5)-3 , n>5.

a(n) = 4*a(n-1)-5*a(n-2)+a(n-3)+4*a(n-4)-5*a(n-5)+2*a(n-6).

G.f.: -x^4 / ( (2*x-1)*(1+x)*(x^2-x+1)*(x-1)^2 ).

EXAMPLE

a(6)=0+0+0+0+1+3+7=11.
