FORMULA
G.f.: (3-4*x+3*x^2)/((1+x^2)*(1-x)^2).
a(4n) = 4n+3, a(4n+1) = 4n+2, a(4n+2) = 4n+1, a(4n+3) = 4n+4.
a(n) = n+1+i^n+(-i)^n, where i is the imaginary unit. - Bruno Berselli, Feb 08 2011
From Wesley Ivan Hurt, May 09 2021: (Start)
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-2*a(n-2)+2*a(n-3)-a(n-4).
a(n) = 1 + n + 2*cos(n*Pi/2). (End)
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = log(2) (A002162). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 28 2023
