FORMULA
a(n) = - 140340 + 2^n*(82764*n^2 - 268092*n - 1159017) + 4^n*(156816*n^2 - 719928*n + 1304154).
G.f.: 3*(1599 + 14665*x + 140000*x^2 - 65180*x^3 - 605152*x^4 -886208*x^5 + 137216*x^6)/((1-x)*(1-2*x)^3*(1-4*x)^3).
MAPLE
a := proc (n) options operator, arrow: -140340+2^n*(82764*n^2-268092*n-1159017)+4^n*(156816*n^2-719928*n+1304154) end proc: seq(a(n), n = 0 .. 22);
