%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A220706/b220706.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 5*a(n-2) - 3*a(n-3) - 6*a(n-4) - a(n-5) - a(n-6) + 4*a(n-7) + a(n-8) - a(n-9) - a(n-10).

%F Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + x)*(1 + 4*x - 9*x^2 + 5*x^3 - 5*x^4 + 3*x^5 + x^6 - x^8) / (1 - 3*x - 5*x^2 + 3*x^3 + 6*x^4 + x^5 + x^6 - 4*x^7 - x^8 + x^9 + x^10). - _Colin Barker_, Aug 02 2018
