Formula

Empirical: a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 4*a(n-2) - 11*a(n-3) + 9*a(n-4) + 12*a(n-5) + 12*a(n-6) - 34*a(n-7) - 8*a(n-8) + 28*a(n-9) - 8*a(n-10) for n>11.

Empirical g.f.: x*(96 - 338*x - 122*x^2 + 1123*x^3 - 34*x^4 - 626*x^5 - 1907*x^6 + 1306*x^7+ 1728*x^8 - 1488*x^9 + 288*x^10) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 3*x + x^2)*(1 - 2*x^2)*(1 - 2*x^3)). - Colin Barker, Dec 05 2018
