%N Expansion of 1/(x^k*(1-x-2*x^(k+1))) for k=8.

%C a(n) is also the number of length n ternary words with at least 8 0-digits between any other digits.

%C The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=17, 3*a(n-17) equals the number of 3-colored compositions of n with all parts >=9, such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - _Milan Janjic_, Nov 27 2011
