%C Conjecture: a(n) is also the number of length n strings of {0,1,2} with digit sum <= 4 (holds if the empirical formula holds). - _Daniel T. Martin_, May 24 2023

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A227259/b227259.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/24)*n^4 + (5/12)*n^3 + (11/24)*n^2 + (13/12)*n + 1.

%F G.f.: x*(3 - 6*x + 8*x^2 - 5*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x)^5. (Conjecture from _Colin Barker_, Sep 07 2018)
