Formula

Quasipolynomial: a(n) = n(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)/72 if 3|n and a(n) = n(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)/24 otherwise.

a(n) = n*(n+1)*(n+2)*(n+3)/(8*(5+4*cos(2*n*Pi/3))). - Gary Detlefs, Apr 01 2011

From Amiram Eldar, Sep 29 2022: (Start)

Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 16 - 8*Pi/sqrt(3).

Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 160*log(2)/3 - 36. (End)
