%N Partial sums of the number of active (ON,black) cells in n-th stage of growth of two-dimensional cellular automaton defined by "Rule 342", based on the 5-celled von Neumann neighborhood.
%C Initialized with a single black (ON) cell at stage zero.

%F a(n) = a(n-1)+2*a(n-2)-2*a(n-3)-2*a(n-6)+2*a(n-7)+a(n-8)-a(n-9) for n>8.
