FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - 19*a(n-4) - 14*a(n-5) + 9*a(n-6) + 14*a(n-7) + 6*a(n-8) - 3*a(n-9) - 2*a(n-10).
Empirical g.f.: x*(5 + 6*x - 9*x^2 - 32*x^3 - 7*x^4 + 23*x^5 + 20*x^6 + 3*x^7 - 5*x^8 - 2*x^9) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x - 5*x^2 - 9*x^3 + 10*x^4 + 24*x^5 + 15*x^6 + x^7 - 5*x^8 - 2*x^9)). - Colin Barker, Feb 24 2019
