%N 1/4 the number of (n+1) X 4 binary arrays with all 2 X 2 subblock sums the same.

%C Column 3 of A183986.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A183980/b183980.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..200</a>

%F Empirical: a(n)=3*a(n-1)-6*a(n-3)+4*a(n-4).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Apr 07 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(9 - 16*x - 19*x^2 + 32*x^3) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 2*x^2)).

%F a(n) = (3*2^(n/2) + 2^n + 12) / 2 for n even.

%F a(n) = 2^((n-5)/2+3) + 2^(n-1) + 6 for n odd.
