Formula

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jan 22 2016 and Apr 20 2019: (Start)

a(n) = 101*a(n-1)-100*a(n-2) for n>2.

G.f.: (1+1000*x^2) / ((1-x)*(1-100*x)).

(End)

Mathematica

rule=243; rows=20; ca=CellularAutomaton[rule, {{1}, 0}, rows-1, {All, All}]; (* Start with single black cell *) catri=Table[Take[ca[[k]], {rows-k+1, rows+k-1}], {k, 1, rows}]; (* Truncated list of each row *) Table[FromDigits[catri[[k]]], {k, 1, rows}]   (* Binary Representation of Rows *)
