%N First differences of number of active (ON,black) cells in n-th stage of growth of two-dimensional cellular automaton defined by "Rule 641", based on the 5-celled von Neumann neighborhood.
%C Initialized with a single black (ON) cell at stage zero.
%C Appears to be essentially the same as A273407.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, May 19 2016: (Start)
%F a(n) = 8-(-1)^n+8*n for n>1.
%F a(n) = 8*n+7 for n>1 and even.
%F a(n) = 8*n+9 for n>1 and odd.
%F a(n) = a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3) for n>2.
%F G.f.: (3+10*x+7*x^2-4*x^4) / ((1-x)^2*(1+x)).
