%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A268419/b268419.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 20*a(n-2) + 12*a(n-3) + 12*a(n-4) - 8*a(n-5) - 3*a(n-6).

%F Empirical g.f.: x*(1 - 6*x + 9*x^2 + 2*x^3 - 4*x^4 - x^5) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 3*x)*(1 - x - x^2)*(1 - 3*x - x^2)). - _Colin Barker_, Jan 13 2019
