This is example a=5. %C A099365 a(n+1) is the number of tilings of an n-board (a board with dimensions n X 1) using half-squares (1/2 X 1 pieces, always placed so that the shorter sides are horizontal) and (1/2,1/2)-fences if there are 5 kinds of half-squares available. A (w,g)-fence is a tile composed of two w X 1 pieces separated horizontally by a gap of width g. a(n+1) also equals the number of tilings of an n-board using (1/4,1/4)-fences and (1/4,3/4)-fences if there are 5 kinds of (1/4,1/4)-fences available. - _Michael A.
