%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A229422/b229422.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 + (25/12)*n + 2.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Sep 15 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(5 - 13*x + 17*x^2 - 10*x^3 + 2*x^4) / (1 - x)^5.

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