%N Number of 0..n arrays x(0..3) of 4 elements without any two consecutive increases.

%C Row 2 of A200785.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A200786/b200786.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..140</a>

%H A. Burstein and T. Mansour, <a href="http://arXiv.org/abs/math.CO/0112281">Words restricted by 3-letter generalized multipermutation patterns</a>, Annals. Combin., 7 (2003), 1-14. See Th. 3.13.

%F Empirical: a(n) = (17/24)*n^4 + (43/12)*n^3 + (151/24)*n^2 + (53/12)*n + 1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Oct 15 2017: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(16 - 5*x + 10*x^2 - 5*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x)^5.

%F a(n) = (24 + 106*n + 151*n^2 + 86*n^3 + 17*n^4) / 24.

%F a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>5.
