Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (17,-95,199,-120).
FORMULA
a(n) = (8^(n+4) - 7*5^(n+4) + 14*3^(n+4) - 15)/840. - Yahia Kahloune, Jul 05 2013
a(0)=1, a(1)=17; for n>1, a(n) = 13*a(n-1) -40*a(n-2) +(3^n-1)/2. - Vincenzo Librandi, Jul 10 2013
a(0)=1, a(1)=17, a(2)=194, a(3)=1882; for n>3, a(n) = 17*a(n-1) -95*a(n-2) +199*a(n-3) -120*a(n-4). - Vincenzo Librandi, Jul 10 2013
