a(n) = A162699(n+1) (Modd 7) = A204453(A162699(n+1)), n>=0, where the nonnegative members of the seven residue classes Mod 7 (not to be confused with mod 7), called [m] for m=0..6, are given in the array A113807, if there the last row, starting with 7 is taken as class [0] after adding a 0 in front. Here only the classes [1], [3] and [5] are relevant. For Modd n residue classes see a comment on A203571. [Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 09 2012]

Formula

From R. J. Mathar, Oct 15 2014: (Start)

G.f.: ( 1+x+x^2 ) / ( (1-x)*(x^2-x+1) ).

a(n) = a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3) - a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>4.

a(n) = 3 + 2*sin(Pi*n/3)/sqrt(3) - 2*cos(Pi*n/3).

a(n) = A001045(n+2) mod 6. (End)

From Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 29 2016: (Start)

a(n) = a(n-6) for n>5.

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) + a(n-3) for n>2. (End)

Example

Modd 7 classes for positive odd numbers reduced mod 7: a(3)=5 because A162699(4)=9 (the fourth positive odd number not divisible by 7), and 9 is a member of the Modd 7 class [5] = {5,9,19,23,...}.
