Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..400

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (16, -84, 224, -350, 336, -196, 64, -9).

Formula

a(n) = 16*a(n-1) - 84*a(n-2) + 224*a(n-3) - 350*a(n-4) + 336*a(n-5) - 196*a(n-6) + 64*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8); a(0)=1, a(1)=8, a(2)=17, a(3)=0, a(4)=2465, a(5)=43424, a(6)=484785, a(7)=4665320. - Harvey P. Dale, Oct 15 2012
