Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..600
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (41).
FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A097805(n,k)*(-1)^(n-k)*42^k. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 04 2009
a(0) = 1; for n>0, a(n) = 42*41^(n-1). - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 05 2009
a(0)=1, a(1)=42, a(n) = 41*a(n-1). - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 10 2012
E.g.f.: (42*exp(41*x) - 1)/41. - G. C. Greubel, Oct 10 2019
