%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A250815/b250815.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (15/4)*n^4 + 36*n^3 + (527/4)*n^2 + (359/2)*n + 81.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Nov 21 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(432 - 845*x + 826*x^2 - 404*x^3 + 81*x^4) / (1 - x)^5.

%F a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>5.
