FORMULA
From Chai Wah Wu, Jan 21 2020: (Start)
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n > 8.
G.f.: x*(x^6 - x^5 + x^4 - x^3 + x^2 + x - 1)/(x^8 - x^7 - x + 1). (End)
a(n) = n - 2*floor((3*n + 4)/7). - Ridouane Oudra, Dec 25 2020
G.f.: x*(1-x^2+x^3)*(x^3+x-1)/((1-x)^2*(1+x+x^2+x^3+x^4+x^5+x^6)). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 04 2022
EXAMPLE
This table shows (x(n),y(n)) for 1<=n<=13:
n...... 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10..11..12..13
x(n)... 3..1.-1..2..0..3..1..4..2..0...3...1...4
y(n).. -1..0..1..0..1..0..1..0..1..2...1...2...1
MATHEMATICA
c = 2; d = 5;
x1 = {3, 1, -1, 2, 0, 3, 1}; y1 = {-1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1};
x[n_] := If[n <= c + d, x1[[n]], x[n - c - d] + 1]
y[n_] := If[n <= c + d, y1[[n]], y[n - c - d] + 1]
