FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 27*a(n-2) + 56*a(n-3) - 75*a(n-4) + 61*a(n-5) - 28*a(n-6) + 7*a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n>10.
Empirical g.f.: x*(8 + 17*x - 332*x^2 + 1269*x^3 - 2791*x^4 + 3819*x^5 - 3116*x^6 + 1441*x^7 - 373*x^8 + 54*x^9) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 5*x + 9*x^2 - 13*x^3 + 4*x^4 - x^5)). - Colin Barker, Jan 31 2019
