%F From _Chai Wah Wu_, Feb 21 2018: (Start)

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-3) - a(n-4) for n > 13.

%F G.f.: x*(2*x^12 + x^9 + x^8 + x^7 + x^6 + x^2 + x + 1)/(x^4 - x^3 - x + 1). (End)

%F a(n) = 2*n + 3*floor(n/3 + 2/3) - 17 for n>9. - _Bruno Berselli_, Feb 22 2018

%e 12 is in the sequence since it is 4+8 and 2+10 but no other sum of two distinct terms.

%t f[s_List, j_Integer] := Block[{cnt, k = s[[-1]] + 1, ss = Plus @@@ Subsets[s, {j}]}, While[ cnt = Count[ss, k]; cnt == 0 || cnt > 2, k++]; Append[s, k]]; Nest[f[#, 2] &, {1, 2}, 70] (* _Robert G. Wilson v_, Jul 05 2014 *)

%t CoefficientList[Series[(2 x^12 + x^9 + x^8 + x^7 + x^6 + x^2 + x + 1) / (x^4 - x^3 - x + 1), {x, 0, 100}], x] (* _Vincenzo Librandi_, Feb 22 2018 *)

%o (Magma) [n le 9 select Floor(n^2/12+n/2+3/4) else 2*n+3*Floor(n/3+2/3)-17: n in [1..65]]; // _Bruno Berselli_, Feb 22 2018

%Y Cf. A003044, A033627, A060469, A060471, A060472. Virtually identical to A003663.
