FORMULA

a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n > 4.

G.f.: x^2*(2+3*x)/(1-x)^5. - Bruno Berselli, May 31 2012

a(n) = (n-1)*n*(n+1)*(5*n-2)/24. - Bruno Berselli, May 31 2012

EXAMPLE

a(8)=798 which results from the following: 1*(8+9+10+11+12+13+14) + 2*(8+9+10+11+12+13) + 3*(8+9+10+11+12) + 4*(8+9+10+11) + 5*(8+9+10) + 6*(8+9) + 7*(8) = 798 = 77+126+150+152+135+102+56. - J. M. Bergot, Aug 23 2022
