Partial sums of 18-gonal (or octadecagonal) pyramidal numbers. Therefore, this is the case k=8 of the general formula n*(n + 1)*(n + 2)*(k*n - k + 2)/12, which is related to 2*(k+1)-gonal pyramidal numbers.

FORMULA
G.f.: x*(1 + 15*x)/(1 - x)^5.
a(n) = Sum_{k = 0..n} A172078(k).
a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 10*a(n-2) + 10*a(n-3) - 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5). - Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 27 2015
