%N Number of n X 3 arrays of the minimum value of corresponding elements and their horizontal or vertical neighbors in a random, but sorted with lexicographically nondecreasing rows and columns, 0..1 n X 3 array.
%C Column 3 of A219291.
%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A219286/b219286.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>
%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/24)*n^4 + (1/4)*n^3 - (1/24)*n^2 + (27/4)*n - 11 for n>2.
%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jul 25 2018: (Start)
%F G.f.: x*(3 - 9*x + 19*x^2 - 23*x^3 + 14*x^4 - 2*x^5 - x^6) / (1 - x)^5.
%F a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>7.
