%F E.g.f.: 1/2*sin(2*x)/cos(7*x) = x + 143*x^3/3! + 58081*x^5/5! + ....

%F a(n) = (-1)^n/(4*n+4)*28^(2*n+1)*sum {k = 1..28} X(k)*B(2*n+2,k/28), where B(n,x) is a Bernoulli polynomial and X(n) is a periodic function modulo 28 given by X(n) = 0 except for X(28*n+5) = X(28*n+23) = 1 and X(28*n+9) = X(28*n+19) = -1.

%F a(n) = 1/2*(-1)^(n+1)*L(-2*n-1,X) in terms of the associated L-series attached to the periodic arithmetical function X.

%F From _Peter Bala_, May 16 2017: (Start)

%F O.g.f. as continued fraction: A(x) = 1/(1 + 25*x - 6*28*x/(1 - 8*28*x/(1 + 25*x -...- n*(7*n-1)*28*x/(1 - n*(7*n+1)*28*x/(1 + 25*x - ... ))))).

%F Also, A(x) = 1/(1 + 81*x - 8*28*x/(1 - 6*28*x/(1 + 81*x -...- n*(7*n+1)*28*x/(1 - n*(7*n-1)*28*x/(1 + 81*x - ... ))))). (End)

%F a(n) ~ sin(Pi/7) * 2^(4*n) * 7^(2*n-1) * n^(2*n-1/2) / (Pi^(2*n-1/2) * exp(2*n)). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, May 18 2017
