FORMULA
Equals 3*A050534. - Zerinvary Lajos, Feb 12 2007
G.f.: 9*x^4/(1-x)^5. - Colin Barker, Jul 02 2012
From Amiram Eldar, Jul 19 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=4} 1/a(n) = 4/27.
Sum_{n>=4} (-1)^n/a(n) = 32*log(2)/9 - 64/27. (End)
EXAMPLE
a(6) = 135 since there are 15 ways to choose the four points that move and 9 ways to move them and 15*9 = 135.
MATHEMATICA
