%N Number of sequences over the alphabet {0,1,...,9} such that no two consecutive terms have distance 7.
%C In general, the number of sequences over the alphabet {0,1,...,9} such that no two consecutive terms have distance 5+k for k in {0,1,2,3,4} is given by a(n) = 9*a(n-1) + 2*k*a(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1)=10.
%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_02">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (9,4).
%F a(n) = 9*a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1)=10.
%F G.f.: (-1 - x)/(-1 + 9*x + 4*x^2).
%F a(n) = ((1 - 11/sqrt(97))/2)*((9 - sqrt(97))/2)^n + ((1 + 11/sqrt(97))/2)*((9 + sqrt(97))/2)^n.
%F a(n) = A015580(n)+A015580(n+1). - _R. J. Mathar_, Oct 20 2019
