FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) +4*a(n-2) +6*a(n-3) -8*a(n-4) -39*a(n-5) -33*a(n-6) -17*a(n-7) +5*a(n-8) +8*a(n-9) +a(n-10).
Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + x)^2*(3 - 3*x - 7*x^2 - 16*x^3 - 4*x^4 + 15*x^5 + 3*x^6) / ((1 - x - 7*x^3 - x^4)*(1 - x - 5*x^2 - 4*x^3 - 2*x^4 + x^5 + x^6)). - Colin Barker, Feb 22 2018
