Formula

a(n) = (3*a(n-1)*a(n-8) - a(n-4)*a(n-5))/a(n-9).

Maple

a:= proc (n) option remember;
   if n < 9 then 1
   else (3*a(n-1)*a(n-8) - a(n-4)*a(n-5))/a(n-9)
   fi;
end proc;
seq(a(n), n=0..35); # G. C. Greubel, Oct 03 2019

Mathematica

a[n_]:= a[n]= If[n<9, 1, (3*a[n-1]*a[n-8] -a[n-4]*a[n-5])/a[n-9]];
