FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 19*a(n-2) + 24*a(n-3) - a(n-4) - 22*a(n-5) - 11*a(n-6) - 2*a(n-7) - 2*a(n-8).
Empirical g.f.: x*(69 + 210*x + 126*x^2 - 237*x^3 - 399*x^4 - 171*x^5 - 43*x^6 - 27*x^7) / (1 - 3*x - 19*x^2 - 24*x^3 + x^4 + 22*x^5 + 11*x^6 + 2*x^7 + 2*x^8). - Colin Barker, Oct 20 2018
