Number of alignments of n strings of length 3.
Conjectures: a(2*n) = 3 (mod 60) and a(2*n+1) = 1 (mod 60); for fixed k, the sequence a(n) (mod k) eventually becomes periodic with exact period a divisor of phi(k), where phi(k) is Euler's totient function A000010. - Peter Bala, Feb 04 2018

FORMULA

a(n) ~ 3^(2*n + 1/2) * n!^3 / (Pi * n * 2^(n+3) * (log(2))^(3*n+1)).
a(n) ~ sqrt(Pi)*3^(2*n+1/2)*n^(3*n+1/2) / (2^(n+3/2)*exp(3*n)*(log(2))^(3*n+1)).
(End)
a(n) = Sum_{k = 3..3*n} Sum_{i = 0..k} (-1)^(k-i)*binomial(k,i)* binomial(i,3)^n. Row sums of A299041. - Peter Bala, Feb 04 2018
