%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A208309/b208309.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jun 30 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: 2*x*(2 - x) / (1 - 5*x + 3*x^2).

%F a(n) = (2^(-n)*((5-sqrt(13))^n*(-7+sqrt(13)) + (5+sqrt(13))^n*(7+sqrt(13)))) / (3*sqrt(13)).
