%N Number of 0..n arrays of length 7 with each element differing from at least one neighbor by 2 or more, starting with 0.

%C Row 7 of A221515.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A221518/b221518.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 1*n^6 + 1*n^5 - 29*n^4 + 104*n^3 - 173*n^2 + 136*n - 40 for n>3.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Aug 06 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: 2*x^2*(4 + 96*x + 260*x^2 + 126*x^3 - 136*x^4 + 43*x^5 - 49*x^6 + 19*x^7 - 3*x^8) / (1 - x)^7.

%F a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>10.

%F (End)
