Table of n, a(n) for n=0..14.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (111,-1110,1000).

Formula

a(n) = 9*A138148(n) + 6*10^n.

G.f.: (6 + 303*x - 1200*x^2)/((1 - x)(1 - 10*x)(1 - 100*x)).

a(n) = 111*a(n-1) - 1110*a(n-2) + 1000*a(n-3) for n > 2.

Maple

A332196 := n -> 10^(n*2+1)-1-3*10^n;
