%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A243039/b243039.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) - 5*a(n-3) - 3*a(n-4) + 3*a(n-5) + 3*a(n-6) + a(n-7).

%F Empirical g.f.: x*(14 - 24*x - 25*x^2 - 5*x^3 + 22*x^4 + 17*x^5 + 5*x^6) / ((1 - x)*(1 - x - x^2 - x^3)*(1 - 3*x - 3*x^2 - x^3)). - _Colin Barker_, Nov 01 2018
