A length n inversion sequence e_1e_2...e_n is a sequence of integers where 0 <= e_i <= i-1. The term a(n) counts those length n inversion sequences with no entries e_i, e_j, e_k (where i<j<k) such that e_i > e_j <> e_k and e_i <> e_k. This is the same as the set of length n inversion sequences avoiding 102, 201, and 210.

EXAMPLE
The length 4 inversion sequences avoiding (102, 201, 210) are 0000, 0001, 0002, 0003, 0010, 0011, 0012, 0013, 0020, 0021, 0022, 0023, 0100, 0101, 0110, 0111, 0112, 0113, 0120, 0121, 0122, 0123.
