FORMULA
For n > 0, a(n) = 8*binomial(2*(n-1),n-1) + binomial(2*n,n) = binomial(2*(n-1),n-1) * (12 - 2/n).
a(n) ~ 4^n * (3/sqrt(Pi*n)).
EXAMPLE
a(1) = binomial(0,0) * (12 - 2/1) = 10;
a(2) = binomial(2,1) * (12 - 2/2) = 22;
a(3) = binomial(4,2) * (12 - 2/3) = 68;
a(4) = binomial(6,3) * (12 - 2/4) = 230.
