Comments

Generated by the formula n*(n+1)*(2*d*n-(2*d-3))/6 for d=8.

In fact, the sequence is related to A001107 by a(n) = n*A001107(n) - Sum_{k=0..n-1} A001107(k), and this is the case d=8 in the identity n*(n*(d*n-d+2)/2) - Sum_{k=0..n-1} k*(d*k-d+2)/2 = n*(n+1)*(2*d*n-2*d+3)/6. - Bruno Berselli, Dec 14 2010

Inverse binomial transform of this sequence: 0, 1, 17, 16, 0, 0 (0 continued). - Bruno Berselli, Dec 14 2010

Principal diagonal of the convolution array A213835. - Clark Kimberling, Jul 04 2012
