%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A275505/b275505.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + 5*a(n-2) + a(n-3).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Feb 04 2019: (Start)

%F G.f.: 4*x*(3 + 5*x + x^2) / ((1 + x)*(1 - 4*x - x^2)).

%F a(n) = (10*(-1)^n + (15-7*sqrt(5))*(2-sqrt(5))^n + (2+sqrt(5))^n*(15+7*sqrt(5))) / 10.
