%N Number of n X 2 0..7 arrays with values 0..7 introduced in row major order and no element equal to any horizontal or vertical neighbor.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A198908/b198908.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..200</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 88*a(n-1) - 2613*a(n-2) + 33232*a(n-3) - 184531*a(n-4) + 400344*a(n-5) - 246519*a(n-6).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Feb 22 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(1 - 84*x + 2295*x^2 - 25272*x^3 + 107312*x^4 - 128772*x^5) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 3*x)*(1 - 7*x)*(1 - 13*x)*(1 - 21*x)*(1 - 43*x)).

%F a(n) = (1036945 + 344344*3^n + 75465*7^n + 12040*13^n + 2795*21^n + 91*43^n) / 2817360.
