Formula

a(1), a(2), a(3) = 1; a(n) = (a(n-1) mod a(n-3)) + a(n-2) + 1.

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Dec 28 2019: (Start)

G.f.: x*(1 - x - x^2 + 2*x^3 - x^4 + x^6 - 2*x^7 + 2*x^8) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)).

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-3) + a(n-4) for n>9.

a(n) = (99 - 3*(-1)^n - 24*n + 2*n^2) / 8 for n>5.
