FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = n^7 + 2*n^6 + 4*n^5 + 5*n^4 + (17/3)*n^3 + 3*n^2 - (2/3)*n.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Nov 10 2018: (Start)
G.f.: 20*x*(1 + 4*x + x^2)*(1 + 14*x + 23*x^2 + 4*x^3) / (1 - x)^8.
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 28*a(n-2) + 56*a(n-3) - 70*a(n-4) + 56*a(n-5) - 28*a(n-6) + 8*a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n>8.
