FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = (1/360)*n^6 + (1/30)*n^5 + (5/72)*n^4 - (1/6)*n^3 + (77/180)*n^2 + (19/30)*n.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jun 01 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(1 - 3*x + 10*x^2 - 8*x^3 + 2*x^4) / (1 - x)^7.
a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>7.
