FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = a(n-1) + 6*a(n-3) - 6*a(n-4) - 10*a(n-6) + 10*a(n-7) + 3*a(n-9) - 3*a(n-10) for n>12.
Empirical g.f.: x*(96 - 33*x + 7*x^2 - 549*x^3 + 236*x^4 + x^5 + 877*x^6 - 447*x^7 - 64*x^8 - 262*x^9 + 138*x^10 + 24*x^11) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 3*x^3)*(1 - 3*x^3 + x^6)). - Colin Barker, Dec 05 2018
