FORMULA
a(2*n) = a(2*n-1)+4*n^2-2*n-2, a(2*n+1) = -a(2*n)-2*n.
a(2*n) = A056220(n), a(2*n-1) = -A142463(n).
Abs(a(n)) = A047838(n) for n > 1.
a(n) = A188652(n+1)-A188652(n) = A000463(n+2)-2*A000463(n+1)+A000463(n).
G.f.: x*(-1-3*x+x^2+x^3) / ((x-1)*(1+x)^3). - R. J. Mathar, Apr 14 2011
a(n) = a(-n) = ((2*n^2-5)*(-1)^n+1)/4. - Bruno Berselli, Sep 14 2011
E.g.f.: 1 + ((x^2 - x - 2)*cosh(x) - (x^2 - x - 3)*sinh(x))/2. - Stefano Spezia, Jul 08 2023
