%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A280474/b280474.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 15*a(n-1) - 87*a(n-2) + 245*a(n-3) - 348*a(n-4) + 240*a(n-5) - 64*a(n-6).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Feb 13 2019: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(1 - 3*x)*(1 - 6*x + 9*x^2 + 12*x^3) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 4*x)^3).

%F a(n) = (8*(4^n-1) + 21*4^n*n + 6*(32+4^n)*n^2) / 324.
