Comments

In general, the sum of a second-order sequence with signature (a,b) and a third-order sequence with signature (x,y,z) will be a fifth-order sequence with signature (a+x,-x*a+b+y, -y*a+z-b*x,-a*z-b*y,-b*z). In this instance, a=b=x=y=z=1 resulting in a signature of (2,1,-1,-2,-1).

Formula

a(n) = A000073(n) + A000045(n).

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + a(n-2) - a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4) - a(n-5) for n > 4 with a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=2, a(3)=3, a(4)=5.
