FORMULA
a(n) = n*(5 - 15*n + 16*n^2)/6.
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - a(n-4).
G.f.: f(x)/g(x), where f(x) = x*(1 + 9*x + 6*x^2) and g(x) = (1-x)^4.
a(n) = n*A002412(n) - (n-1)*A002412(n-1). [Bruno Berselli, Dec 11 2012]
a(n) = n*A000384(n) + sum( A000384(i), i=0..n-1 ). [Bruno Berselli, Dec 18 2013]
