%F a(n) = A036240(n) - A036239(n) + A000918(n).

%F a(n) = (8^n - 7^n - 6*4^n + 6*3^n + 11*2^n - 17)/6.

%F a(n) = Sum_{j=1..n} (-1)^(j+1)*C(n, j)*C(2^(n-j)-1, k-1), where k=4.

%F Also: 1/(k-1)!*Sum_{j=1..k} s(k, j)*(2^((j-1)*n)-(2^(j-1)-1)^n), where s(k, j) are Stirling numbers of the first kind (and k=4).

%F G.f.: x^3*(3 + 59*x - 692*x^2 + 1344*x^3) / ( (x-1)*(4*x-1)*(3*x-1)*(2*x-1)*(8*x-1)*(7*x-1) ). - _R. J. Mathar_, Jun 13 2013
