Comments

Equivalently, numbers congruent to {0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9} mod 11.

In general, n + floor((k-1)*n/k) provides the numbers congruent to {0, 1, 3, 5, ..., 2*k-3} mod (2*k-1) for k>1.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,0,0,0,0,1,-1).

Formula

G.f.: x*(1 + 2 x + 2 x^2 + 2 x^3 + 2 x^4 + 2 x^5)/((1 - x)^2*(1 + x + x^2 + x^3 + x^4 + x^5)).

a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-6) - a(n-7).

a(6*k + r) = 11*k + 2*r - (1 - (-1)^a(r))/2, with r = 0..5.
