Vec(-(4*x^5-2*x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1)/((x+1)*(2*x-1)*(x^2-x+1)*(4*x^2+2*x+1)) + O(x^100)) \\ Colin Barker, Nov 02 2015
Formula
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} if (mod(n*k, 3)=0, 1, 0) * C(n, k).
From Colin Barker, Nov 02 2015: (Start)
a(n) = 7*a(n-3)+8*a(n-6) for n>5.
G.f.: -(4*x^5-2*x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1) / ((x+1)*(2*x-1)*(x^2-x+1)*(4*x^2+2*x+1)).
