FORMULA
G.f.: ((1+x-sqrt(1-6*x+x^2))/(4*x))^7.
a(n) = (7/n)*Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n,k)*binomial(n+k+6,k-1).
a(n) = 7*hypergeom([1-n, n+8], [2], -1), n >= 1, a(0)=1.
a(n) = fourth binomial transform of 1,3,2,6,4,12. - Al Hakanson (hawkuu(AT)gmail.com), Aug 08 2009
Recurrence: n*(n+7)*a(n) = (7*n^2+37*n+12)*a(n-1) - (7*n^2+19*n-24)*a(n-2) + (n-3)*(n+4)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 18 2012
a(n) ~ 7*sqrt(3*sqrt(2)-4)*(99-70*sqrt(2)) * (3+2*sqrt(2))^(n+7)/(32*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 18 2012
