FORMULA
G.f.: (1+x^2)/(1-x^5) = (1+x^2)/((1-x)*(1+x+x^2+x^3+x^4)).
a(n) = a(-n+2) = (1/25)*(-4*(n mod 5) + ((n+1) mod 5) + 6*((n+2) mod 5) - 4*((n+3) mod 5) + 6*((n+4) mod 5)).
a(n) + a(n+1) + a(n+2) = A177706(n+4).
a(n) - a(n+2) + a(n+4) = A011658(n+2).
a(n) = ((n+4)^2 mod 5 + (n+4)^4 mod 5)/2. - Gary Detlefs, May 29 2012
a(n) = (2/5) * (1 + cos(2*(n-2)*Pi/5) + cos(4*(n-2)*Pi/5) + cos(2*n*Pi/5) + cos(4*n*Pi/5)). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Sep 26 2018
a(n) = floor(((2*n-1) mod 5)/3). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Apr 29 2020
