Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,-1,0,0,0,0,0,1,-2,1).

Formula

G.f.: (1 + x^8)/((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)*(1 + x^2)*(1 + x^4)).

a(n) = floor( (n*(n+2) + 14 + 4*((n mod 4) - 1)*(-1)^floor(n/4))/8 ). - Tani Akinari, Jul 25 2013

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-8) - 2*a(n-9) + a(n-10). - Vincenzo Librandi, May 14 2019
