%F a(2*i) = 2*Sum_{j=0..i-1} 5^j = string "2"^i read in base 5.

%F a(n) <= A218554(n). - _Jason Kimberley_, Dec 21 2012

%F a(n) = a(n-1)+5*a(n-2)-5*a(n-3). G.f.: -x^3*(10*x^2-5*x-7) / ((x-1)*(5*x^2-1)). - _Colin Barker_, Feb 01 2013

%F From _Colin Barker_, Nov 25 2016: (Start)

%F a(n) = (5^(n/2) - 1)/2 for n>2 and even.

%F a(n) = (3*5^((n-1)/2) - 1)/2 for n>2 and odd. (End)

%F E.g.f.: (5*cosh(sqrt(5)*x) - 5*cosh(x) - 5*sinh(x) + 3*sqrt(5)*sinh(sqrt(5)*x) - 10*x*(1 + x))/10. - _Stefano Spezia_, Apr 07 2022
