Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1)*2 + 8.

G.f.: 16 + 40*x + 88*x^2 + 184*x^3 + 376*x^4 + 760*x^5 + 1528*x^6 + ...

a(n) = 8 * A055010(n+1). [Joerg Arndt, Jun 01 2014]

G.f.: -((8*(x - 2))/(2*x^2 - 3*x + 1)). - Vincenzo Librandi, Jun 02 2014

EXAMPLE

a(0) = 4+8+4;

a(1) = 4+8+16+8+4;

a(2) = 4+8+16+32+16+8+4;

a(3) = 4+8+16+32+64+32+16+8+4.
