FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) +a(n-2) -7*a(n-3) +4*a(n-5).
Conjectures from Colin Barker, May 05 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(7 - 4*x - 17*x^2 + 4*x^3 + 12*x^4) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)^2*(1 - 2*x)^2).
a(n) = (-3*n + 2^(n+3)*(3*n+8) + 17) / 27 for n even.
a(n) = (3*n + 2^(n+3)*(3*n+8) + 10) / 27 for n odd.
(End)
