%N a(n) is the number of nonnegative integers that can be represented in a 7-segment display by using only n segments (version A006942).

%C The nonnegative integers are displayed as in A006942, where a 7 is depicted by 3 segments.

%C Given the set S = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}, the function f defined in S as f(5) = f(6) = 3 and f(s) = 1 elsewhere, a(n) is equal to the difference between the number b(n) of S-restricted f-weighted integer compositions of n with that of n-6, i.e., b(n-6). The latter one provides the number of all those excluded cases where a nonnegative integer is displayed with leading zeros. b(n) is calculated as the sum of polynomial coefficients or extended binomial coefficients (see Equation 3 in Eger) where the index of summation is positive and it covers the numbers of possible digits that can be displayed by n segments (see first formula).

%C The same sequence is obtained when 7 and 9 are depicted respectively by 4 and 5 segments (A074458). - _Stefano Spezia_, Apr 11 2021

%F a(n) = b(n) - b(n-6), where b(n) = [x^n] Sum_{k=max(1,ceiling(n/7))..floor(n/2)} P(x)^k with P(x) = x^2 + x^3 + x^4 + 3*x^5 + 3*x^6 + x^7.

%F From _Colin Barker_, Jan 20 2020: (Start)

%F G.f.: x^2*(1 - x)*(1 + x)^2*(1 - x + x^2)*(1 + x + x^2)*(1 + x^2 + 2*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x^2 - x^3 - x^4 - 3*x^5 - 3*x^6 - x^7).

%F a(n) = a(n-2) + a(n-3) + a(n-4) + 3*a(n-5) + 3*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>13.
