%N Number of n X 7 binary arrays without the pattern 0 1 diagonally or antidiagonally.

%C Column 7 of A188824.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A188822/b188822.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..200</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) -2*a(n-3) +a(n-4) for n>7.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Apr 30 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: 4*x*(32 + 225*x + 394*x^2 + 329*x^3 + 72*x^4 + 8*x^5 - 36*x^6) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)).

%F a(n) = 2*(578 - 1088*n + 512*n^2) for n>3 and even.

%F a(n) = 2*(528 - 1088*n + 512*n^2) for n>3 and odd.
