Table of n, a(n) for n=1..79.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,-2,1).

Formula

a(1) = a(4) = 16, a(2) = a(3) = 7, a(5) = a(6) = 25; for n > 6, a(n) = a(n-6).

G.f.: x*(16 - 25*x + 25*x^2)/((1-x)*(1 - x + x^2)).

a(n) = 16 + 9*cos(n*Pi/3) - 3*sqrt(3)*sin(n*Pi/3). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Sep 26 2018
