Never prime, as a(n) = (2*n+1) * (n^10 + 5*n^9 + 25*n^8 + 70*n^7 + 130*n^6 + 166*n^5 + 148*n^4 + 91*n^3 + 37*n^2 + 9*n + 1). - Jonathan Vos Post, Aug 26 2011

Formula

From Colin Barker, Feb 06 2020: (Start)

G.f.: (1 + x)*(1 + 2036*x + 152637*x^2 + 2203488*x^3 + 9738114*x^4 + 15724248*x^5 + 9738114*x^6 + 2203488*x^7 + 152637*x^8 + 2036*x^9 + x^10) / (1 - x)^12.

a(n) = 12*a(n-1) - 66*a(n-2) + 220*a(n-3) - 495*a(n-4) + 792*a(n-5) - 924*a(n-6) + 792*a(n-7) - 495*a(n-8) + 220*a(n-9) - 66*a(n-10) + 12*a(n-11) - a(n-12) for n>11.
