R. H. Hardin, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210

FORMULA

Empirical: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) - a(n-4) - 2*a(n-5) - a(n-6).

Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + 3*x - x^2 - 2*x^3 - 2*x^4 - x^5) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)*(1 - 2*x - 2*x^2 - 2*x^3 - x^4)). - Colin Barker, Aug 02 2018

EXAMPLE

Some solutions for n=3 0=self 3=ne 4=w 6=e 7=sw (reciprocal directions total 10):
