FORMULA
a(n) = 15*n^2 - 5*n = 10*A000326(n) = 5*A049450(n) = 2*A152734(n).
a(n) = 30*n + a(n-1) - 20 for n>0, a(0) = 0. - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 03 2010
G.f.: 10*x*(1+2*x)/(1-x)^3. - Colin Barker, Feb 14 2012
From G. C. Greubel, Aug 28 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
E.g.f.: 5*x*(2 + 3*x)*exp(x). (End)
