%C Row 3 of A220621.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A220622/b220622.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 6*a(n-1) + 22*a(n-2) - 32*a(n-3) - 12*a(n-4) + 8*a(n-5) - 3*a(n-6).

%F Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + 16*x - 29*x^2 - 13*x^3 + 8*x^4 - 3*x^5) / (1 - 6*x - 22*x^2 + 32*x^3 + 12*x^4 - 8*x^5 + 3*x^6). - _Colin Barker_, Aug 01 2018
