%N Nonhomogeneous three-term sequence a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + n.

%C Extension of Fibonacci sequence, with the addition of natural number equal to the index.

%H Colin Barker, <a href="/A179991/b179991.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000</a>

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_04">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (3,-2,-1,1).

%F a(n) = F(n)+sum(i; i=1 to n)+sum((F(k)*sum(j;j=1 to k-n-1); k=0 to n-4))+2F(n-3).

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

%F Limiting ratio a(n+1)/a(n) is Phi = 1.618034519...

%F a(n) = 2*A000032(n+1)-n-3. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 09 2010

%F From _Colin Barker_, Mar 12 2017: (Start)

%F a(n) = 2^(-n)*(-3*2^n+(1-sqrt(5))^(1+n) + (1+sqrt(5))^n + sqrt(5)*(1+sqrt(5))^n - 2^n*n).

%F a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) - a(n-3) + a(n-4) for n>4.

%F (End)

%e a(5) = a(4)+a(3)+5 = 8+15+5 = 28.

%o (PARI) Vec(x*(x-2)*(x^2-x+1) / ((x^2+x-1)*(x-1)^2) + O(x^50)) \\ _Colin Barker_, Mar 12 2017

%Y Cf. A000045, A022319 (first differences).
