%N a(n) = A171373(n+1) - 2*A171373(n).

%C The least significant digits have a period of length 20. Another period (not the same but of the same length, as this a sequence contains negative numbers) is defined reading the sequence modulo 10.

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_04">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (3,-4,2,-1)

%F a(n)=4*A105371(n-1), n>0.

%F a(n)= 3*a(n-1) -4*a(n-2) +2*a(n-3) -a(n-4). G.f.: 4*(1-2*x+2*x^2)/(1-3*x+4*x^2-2*x^3+x^4).

%Y Cf. A138112, A105371.
