%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A250856/b250856.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (76/9)*n^6 + (1595/12)*n^5 + (28765/36)*n^4 + (31373/12)*n^3 + (155683/36)*n^2 + (10223/3)*n + 1024.

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

%F G.f.: x*(12311 - 22546*x + 37047*x^2 - 35749*x^3 + 21160*x^4 - 7167*x^5 + 1024*x^6) / (1 - x)^7.

%F a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>7.
