%F From _Hieronymus Fischer_, Jun 08 2007: (Start)
%F a(n) = (1/2)*(9 - (-1)^n - 2*(-1)^(b/4) - 4*(-1)^((b - 2 + 2*(-1)^(b/4))/8)) where b = 2n - 1 + (-1)^n.
%F Also a(n) = A010877(n) + 1.
%F G.f.: g(x) = (1/(1-x^8))*Sum_{k=0..7} (k+1)*x^k.
%F Also: g(x) = (8x^9 - 9x^8 + 1)/((1-x^8)*(1-x)^2). (End)
