%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A183979/b183979.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..200</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-3) + 4*a(n-4).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Apr 07 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(6 - 10*x - 13*x^2 + 20*x^3) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 2*x^2)).

%F a(n) = (3*2^(n/2) + 2^n + 6) / 2 for n even.

%F a(n) = 2^(n-1) + 2^((n+1)/2) + 3 for n odd.
