FORMULA

Empirical: a(n) = 9*a(n-2) + 54*a(n-3) + 60*a(n-4) - 54*a(n-5) - 279*a(n-6) - 270*a(n-7) + 64*a(n-8) - 864*a(n-9) - 1728*a(n-10) for n>11.

Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + 8*x + 7*x^2 - 6*x^3 - 180*x^4 - 98*x^5 + 211*x^6 + 294*x^7 - 208*x^8 + 576*x^9 + 2496*x^10) / (1 - 9*x^2 - 54*x^3 - 60*x^4 + 54*x^5 + 279*x^6 + 270*x^7 - 64*x^8 + 864*x^9 + 1728*x^10). - Colin Barker, Jan 08 2019
