%N a(n) = 2^n * Sum_{k=0..n} k^p*q^k, where p=3, q=-1/2.

%C The factor 2^n (i.e., |1/q|^n) is present to make the values integers.

%C See also A232600 and references therein for integer values of q.

%C The same values with different signs are produced by a(n) = n^3 - 2*a(n). The signs are all positive until n = 15, with negative signs on values for all subsequent odd indices. - _Richard R. Forberg_, Feb 17 2014.
