N=66; x='x+O('x^N) /* that many terms */ gf= 1/(1-sum(j=1,N, floor(j/3)*x^j )) Vec(gf) /* show terms */
Formula
G.f.: 1/(1-sum(j>=1, floor(j/3)*x^j )).
Conjectural g.f.: (x-1)^2*(x^2+x+1) / (x^4-2*x^3-x+1). - Colin Barker, May 15 2013
G.f.: 1 + x^3*Q(0)/2 , where Q(k) = 1 + 1/(1 - x*(4*k+1 + 2*x^2 - x^3)/( x*(4*k+3 + 2*x^2 - x^3 ) + 1/Q(k+1) )); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Sep 11 2013
