FORMULA
Empirical (for n>=4): a(n) = 2^(n-8)*((n+6)*2^n + 8 - 8*(-1)^n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 29 2012
Empirical G.f.: -3/128 + x^3/4 + x^2/2 + 49*x/64 - (296*x^3 - 140*x^2 + 6*x + 3)/(128*(2*x-1)*(2*x+1)*(4*x-1)^2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 29 2012
From Colin Barker, Oct 28 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 4^(n-4)*(n+6) for n>3 and even.
a(n) = 2^(n-8)*(2^n*(n+6)+16) for n>3 and odd.
a(n) = 8*a(n-1)-12*a(n-2)-32*a(n-3)+64*a(n-4) for n>7.
