Table of n, a(n) for n=0..36.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,3,-2,-1).

Formula

G.f.: (1+x-x^2)/(1-x-3*x^2+2*x^3+x^4).

a(n) = sum( A216236(n-k,k), 0<=k<=n ).

a(n) = a(n-1)+3*a(n-2)-2*a(n-3)-a(n-4) for n>=4, a(0)=1, a(1)=2, a(2)=4, a(3)=8.

a(n+1) - a(n) = A065455(n).
