FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = (1/112)*n^8 + (79/1260)*n^7 + (59/180)*n^6 + (299/360)*n^5 + (259/144)*n^4 + (821/360)*n^3 + (7219/2520)*n^2 + (767/420)*n + 1.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Aug 21 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(11 + 22*x + 183*x^2 + 14*x^3 + 158*x^4 - 56*x^5 + 35*x^6 - 8*x^7 + x^8) / (1 - x)^9.
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>9.
