FORMULA
|
a(n) = binomial(2*n-8, 7)/8.
G.f.: (x^8)*(1+7*x+7*x^2+x^3)/(1-x)^8.
G.f.: A(x)= (1+7*x+7*x^2+x^3)/(x-1)^8 = 1 + 45*x/(G(0)-45*x), |x|<1; if |x|>1, G(0)=45*x;
G(k) = (k+1)*(2*k+3) + x*(k+5)*(2*k+9) - x*(k+1)*(k+6)*(2*k+3)*(2*k+11)/G(k+1); (continued fraction Euler's 1st kind, 1-step ). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jun 15 2012
