%N Number of words of length n over the alphabet {0,1,...,10} such that no two consecutive terms have distance 9.
%C In general, the number of sequences on {0,1,...,10} such that no two consecutive terms have distance 6+k for k in {0,1,2,3,4} has generating function (-1 - x)/(-1 + 10*x + (2*k+1)*x^2).
