FORMULA

Empirical: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - 30*a(n-3) + 7*a(n-4) + 74*a(n-5) - 46*a(n-6) - 60*a(n-7) + 48*a(n-8).

Empirical g.f.: 8*x*(33 - 71*x - 259*x^2 + 517*x^3 + 676*x^4 - 1224*x^5 - 584*x^6 + 944*x^7) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 2*x^2)*(1 - 3*x^2)*(1 - x - 4*x^2)). - Colin Barker, Oct 16 2018
