EXAMPLE
a(3) = 96, because there are 96 3-cycles on the graph of the 24-cell.
Cycle polynomial is 96*x^3 + 360*x^4 + 1440*x^5 + 7120*x^6 + 37728*x^7 + 196488*x^8 + 974592*x^9 + 4536000*x^10 + 19934208*x^11 + 82689264*x^12 + 322437312*x^13 + 1171745280*x^14 + 3924079104*x^15 + 11964375936*x^16 + 32761139328*x^17 + 79244294016*x^18 + 165800420352*x^19 + 291640320576*x^20 + 413774810112*x^21 + 443415854592*x^22 + 318534709248*x^23 + 114869295744*x^24.
