FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = (1/259200)*n^10 + (1/6480)*n^9 + (149/60480)*n^8 + (163/7560)*n^7 + (10411/86400)*n^6 + (209/432)*n^5 + (17977/12960)*n^4 + (6043/3240)*n^3 + (37673/12600)*n^2 + (1423/1260)*n + 3.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Dec 06 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(11 - 40*x + 182*x^2 - 430*x^3 + 711*x^4 - 822*x^5 + 657*x^6 - 360*x^7 + 131*x^8 - 29*x^9 + 3*x^10) / (1 - x)^11.
a(n) = 11*a(n-1) - 55*a(n-2) + 165*a(n-3) - 330*a(n-4) + 462*a(n-5) - 462*a(n-6) + 330*a(n-7) - 165*a(n-8) + 55*a(n-9) - 11*a(n-10) + a(n-11) for n>11.
