%N 3^n-Jacobsthal(n).
%C Binomial transform of A052992. Binomial transform is A093834. Partial sums are A004054. Sums of consecutive pairs yield A053581.
%C Contribution from _Johannes W. Meijer_, Aug 15 2010: (Start)
%C An elephant sequence, see A175654. For the corner squares four A[5] vectors, with decimal values 343, 349, 373 and 469, lead to this sequence. For the central square these vectors lead to the companion sequence A175659.
