COMMENTS
a(n) = a(0)*product(i = 1..k) r(i)^C(n,i), with C(n,i) = 0 for all i > n. Here, it is submitted a special case of the geometric-geometric sequence having finite ratios, that is, k consecutive rows of ratios, whose first terms are r(1), r(2), r(3), ..., r(k), the last row (k-th row) being of a constant ratio, with k = 3, a(0) = r(1) = r(2) = r(3) = 2.
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)*(2^(1+n*(n-1)/2)), with a(0)=2.
