%C Column 2 of A262332.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A262326/b262326.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) - 9*a(n-3).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Mar 20 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(3 - 4*x - 9*x^2) / ((1 - 3*x)*(1 - 3*x^2)).

%F a(n) = 2*3^(n/2-1) + 3^(n-1) for n even.

%F a(n) = 2*3^((n-3)/2+1) + 3^(n-1) for n odd.

%F (End)
