%F From _Colin Barker_, Dec 28 2015 and Apr 14 2019: (Start)

%F a(n) = 10001*a(n-2) - 10000*a(n-4) for n>7.

%F G.f.: (1 -9900*x^2 +1100000*x^3 -989000*x^4 +109000000*x^5 -110000000*x^6 +10000000000*x^7) / ((1 -x)*(1 +x)*(1 -100*x)*(1 +100*x)).

%F (End)

%F a(n) = floor(100^n/10) + floor(1011010*100^n/999900) - 1011010 for odd n>3; a(n) = 11101 for even n>3. - _Karl V. Keller, Jr._, Aug 19 2021
