FORMULA

From Gary W. Adamson, Mar 08 2008: (Start)

Inverse binomial transform = A134067: (1, 6, 14, 30, 62, 126, ...).

Second inverse binomial transform = (1, 5, 3, 5, 3, 5, 3, 5, ...). (End)

From Colin Barker, Aug 13 2012: (Start)

a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 11*a(n-2) + 6*a(n-3).

G.f.: (1+x-4*x^2)/((1-x)*(1-2*x)*(1-3*x)). (End)
