%C Row 1 of A267911.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A267912/b267912.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 2*a(n-2) - 8*a(n-3) for n>5.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Feb 25 2018: (Start)

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

%F a(n) = (1/17)*2^(-5-n)*(-17*4^(1+n) + (85-19*sqrt(17))*(1-sqrt(17))^n + (1+sqrt(17))^n*(85+19*sqrt(17))) for n>2.

%F (End)

%e Some solutions for n=8:
