%N Number of -n..n arrays x(0..5) of 6 elements with zero sum, and adjacent elements not both strictly positive and not both strictly negative.

%C Row 6 of A199898.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A199901/b199901.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..200</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (11/10)*n^5 + (55/6)*n^4 + (55/2)*n^3 + (173/6)*n^2 + (37/5)*n + 1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, May 16 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(75 + 83*x - 38*x^2 + 10*x^3 + 3*x^4 - x^5) / (1 - x)^6.

%F a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 15*a(n-2) + 20*a(n-3) - 15*a(n-4) + 6*a(n-5) - a(n-6) for n>6.
