Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (7,-21,35,-35,21,-7,1).

Formula

G.f.: (1 + 11*x + 24*x^2 + 11*x^3 + x^4) / (1 - x)^7.

From Colin Barker, Jan 11 2017: (Start)

a(n) = (120 + 438*n + 677*n^2 + 570*n^3 + 275*n^4 + 72*n^5 + 8*n^6) / 120.

a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n > 6.
