%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Apr 28 2017: (Start)

%F G.f.: (1+3*x-x^2-6*x^3-16*x^4+16*x^6+192*x^8-448*x^10+256*x^12) / ((1-x)*(1+x)*(1-2*x)*(1+2*x)*(1-2*x^2)).

%F a(n) = 2^n - 2^(n/2) for n>6 and even.

%F a(n) = 2^(n + 1) - 1 for n>6 and odd.

%F a(n) = 7*a(n-2) - 14*a(n-4) + 8*a(n-6) for n>6.

%F (End)

%t CAStep[rule_, a_] := Map[rule[[10 - #]] &, ListConvolve[{{0, 2, 0},{2, 1, 2}, {0, 2, 0}}, a, 2],{2}];

%t code = 107; stages = 128;

%t rule = IntegerDigits[code, 2, 10];

%t g = 2 * stages + 1; (* Maximum size of grid *)

%t ca = a;

%t ca = Table[ca = CAStep[rule, ca], {n, 1, stages + 1}];
