FORMULA
Conjectures from Colin Barker, May 09 2020: (Start)
G.f.: x*(2 + 2*x + 3*x^2 + 2*x^3 + 11*x^4 - 2*x^5 + 22*x^6 - 2*x^7 + 8*x^8 + 18*x^9 - 42*x^10 + 10*x^11 + 60*x^12 - 10*x^13 + 66*x^14 - 14*x^15 - 130*x^16 - 33*x^18 + 16*x^19 + 65*x^20 - 8*x^23) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 + x)^2*(1 + x^2)^2).
a(n) = 2*a(n-4) - a(n-8) for n>24.
