%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A249713/b249713.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/70)*n^7 + (19/15)*n^6 + (178/15)*n^5 + 30*n^4 + (851/30)*n^3 + (56/15)*n^2 - (446/105)*n + 1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Nov 10 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(72 + 601*x - 344*x^2 - 411*x^3 + 152*x^4 - 5*x^5 + 8*x^6 - x^7) / (1 - x)^8.

%F a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 28*a(n-2) + 56*a(n-3) - 70*a(n-4) + 56*a(n-5) - 28*a(n-6) + 8*a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n>8.
