Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,322,-322,-1,1).
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+322*a(n-2)-322*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).
G.f.: -x*(x^4+5*x^3-52*x^2+5*x+1) / ((x-1)*(x^2-18*x+1)*(x^2+18*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
6 is in the sequence because it is the 3rd triangular number and the 2nd centered pentagonal number.
PROG
(PARI) Vec(-x*(x^4+5*x^3-52*x^2+5*x+1)/((x-1)*(x^2-18*x+1)*(x^2+18*x+1)) + O(x^100))
