FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 14*a(n-1) - 85*a(n-2) + 294*a(n-3) - 639*a(n-4) + 906*a(n-5) - 839*a(n-6) + 490*a(n-7) - 164*a(n-8) + 24*a(n-9).
Empirical g.f.: x*(40357 - 420556*x + 1820163*x^2 - 4302685*x^3 + 6157204*x^4 - 5596797*x^5 + 3233842*x^6 - 1077420*x^7 + 157464*x^8) / ((1 - x)^5*(1 - 2*x)^3*(1 - 3*x)). - Colin Barker, Nov 23 2018
