FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = a(n-1) +2*a(n-2) +6*a(n-3) +11*a(n-4) +14*a(n-5) +4*a(n-6) -4*a(n-7) -4*a(n-8) -a(n-9).
Empirical g.f.: x*(1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 3*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 4*x^5 - 3*x^6 - 5*x^7 - 2*x^8) / (1 - x - 2*x^2 - 6*x^3 - 11*x^4 - 14*x^5 - 4*x^6 + 4*x^7 + 4*x^8 + x^9). - Colin Barker, May 11 2018
