%N Number of n X 2 0..2 arrays with some element plus some horizontally, vertically, diagonally or antidiagonally adjacent neighbor totalling two exactly once.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A268768/b268768.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3) - 4*a(n-4) for n>5.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jan 14 2019: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(3 + 6*x - x^2 + 12*x^3 + 12*x^4) / ((1 + x)^2*(1 - 2*x)^2).

%F a(n) = (4/27)*(7*((-1)^n-2^n) + 3*((-1)^n + 2^(2+n))*n) for n>1.
