FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-4) + 5*a(n-6) + 2*a(n-8) - 2*a(n-10) + a(n-12) for n>13.
Empirical g.f.: x*(63 + 106*x + 89*x^2 + 248*x^3 - 56*x^4 + 144*x^5 - 35*x^6 + 46*x^7 - 16*x^8 - 50*x^9 + 18*x^10 + 26*x^11 - 7*x^12) / (1 - 3*x^2 - 10*x^4 - 5*x^6 - 2*x^8 + 2*x^10 - x^12). - Colin Barker, Dec 30 2018
