%F Empirical: a(n) = 12*a(n-1) - 60*a(n-2) + 162*a(n-3) - 255*a(n-4) + 234*a(n-5) - 116*a(n-6) + 24*a(n-7) for n>9.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Nov 22 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(127 - 1093*x + 3898*x^2 - 7364*x^3 + 7674*x^4 - 3984*x^5 + 498*x^6 + 328*x^7 - 88*x^8) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 2*x)^3*(1 - 3*x)).
