%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A235510/b235510.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-3) + a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Mar 19 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(16 - 6*x - 23*x^2 + 6*x^3 + 8*x^4) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 + x)*(1 - 3*x - 2*x^2)).

%F a(n) = (1/544)*(-221 - 68*(-1)^n + 2^(-1-n)*((2533-611*sqrt(17))*(3-sqrt(17))^n + (3+sqrt(17))^n*(2533+611*sqrt(17))) - 68*(1+n)).
