COMMENTS
If one Pisano period (of 48 members) is partitioned sequentially as 8 groups of 6, then we observe that in each group, the 6th member is 0.
There are 8 instances of this residue 0.
The set of residues {3,7,11,15,19,23,27,31} is seen in the 2nd members of each group of 6, and similarly seen in the 4th, and in the 5th members. This set appears in a total of 3 instances.
The set of residues {6,14,22,30} has 2 instances, seen when considering the 3rd members of each group of 6.
The set of residues {1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29} appears as 1 instance when considering the 1st members of each group of 6.
For the 8 instances case, each residue is congruent with 8 (mod 4).
For the 3 instances case, each residue is congruent with 3 (mod 4).
For the 2 instances case, each residue is congruent with 2 (mod 4).
For the 1 instances case, each residue is congruent with 1 (mod 4).
8,3,2,1 are Fibonacci numbers.

FORMULA
a(n) = (F(n+4)-2) mod 32. (Based on the F(n) partial sums formula: F(n+2)-1, while here omitting F(1)=1 and F(0)=0.)
