COMMENTS
a(n) is the number of quads in the EvenQuads-2^{n+2} deck. - Tanya Khovanova and MIT PRIMES STEP senior group, Jul 02 2023

FORMULA
G.f.: 1/((1-2x)*(1-4x)*(1-8x)).
Difference of Gaussian binomial coefficients [ n+1, 3 ] - [ n, 3 ] (n >= 2).
a(n) = (2^n-6*4^n+8*8^n)/3. - James R. Buddenhagen, Dec 14 2003
a(n) = Sum_{0<=i,j,k,<=n; i+j+k=n} 2^i*4^j*8^k. - Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 25 2007
From Vincenzo Librandi, Mar 15 2011: (Start)
a(n) = 14*a(n-1) - 56*a(n-2) + 64*a(n-3) for n >= 3.
a(n) = 12*a(n-1) - 32*a(n-2) + 2^n with a(0)=1, a(1)=14. (End)
MAPLE
[seq(GBC(n+1, 3, 2)-GBC(n, 3, 2), n=2..30)]; # produces A016290 (cf. A006516).
seq((2^n-6*4^n+8*8^n)/3, n=0..20);
seq(binomial(2^n, 3)/4, n=2..20); # Zerinvary Lajos, Feb 22 2008
