%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A269584/b269584.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = n^4 + 4*n^3 + 5*n^2 + 5*n + 1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jan 24 2019: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(16 - x + 15*x^2 - 7*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x)^5.

%F a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n>5.

%F (End)
