Robert Israel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..716
FORMULA
G.f.: (1-25*x)^(-2/5).
a(n) = (5^n/n!) * Product_{k=0..n-1} (5*k + 2).
a(n) ~ Gamma(2/5)^(-1)*n^(-3/5)*5^(2*n)*{1 - 3/25*n^-1 + ...}. - Joe Keane (jgk(AT)jgk.org), Nov 24 2001
a(n+1) = (10 + 25*n)*a(n)/(n+1). - Robert Israel, Sep 04 2018
a(n) = (-25)^n*binomial(-2/5,n). - Peter Luschny, Oct 23 2018
From Peter Bala, Sep 24 2023: (Start)
a(n) = 25^n * binomial(n - 3/5, n).
P-recursive: a(n) = 5*(5*n - 3)/n * a(n-1) with a(0) = 1. (End)
EXAMPLE
(1-x)^(-2/5) = 1 + 2/5*x + 7/25*x^2 + 28/125*x^3 + ...
