FORMULA
From Colin Barker, Feb 10 2017: (Start)
G.f.: x*(1 - 2*x + 3*x^2)/((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - x + x^2)).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 5*a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4) for n>3. (End)
From Bruno Berselli, Feb 10 2017: (Start)
a(n) = 2^n + ((-1)^floor(n/3) + (-1)^floor((n+1)/3))/2 - 2. Therefore:
a(3*k) = 8^k + (-1)^k - 2,
a(3*k+1) = 2*8^k + (-1)^k - 2,
a(3*k+2) = 4*8^k - 2. (End)
a(n+6*h) = a(n) + 2^n*(64^h - 1) with h>=0. For h=1, a(n+6) = a(n) + 63*2^n.
a(n) - (a(n) mod 9) = A153237(n) = 9*A153234(n).
