%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A228212/b228212.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 5*a(n-1) -6*a(n-2) = A001047(n+2) for n>5.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Sep 09 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(9 + 4*x + 8*x^2 - 36*x^3 - 72*x^4) / ((1 - 2*x)*(1 - 3*x)).

%F a(n) = 3^(2+n) - 2^(2+n) for n>3.
