Formula
Empirical: a(n) = (841/180)*n^6 + (841/60)*n^5 + (325/18)*n^4 + (51/4)*n^3 + (949/180)*n^2 + (37/30)*n + 1.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Mar 07 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(57 + 764*x + 1727*x^2 + 750*x^3 + 71*x^4 - 6*x^5 + x^6) / (1 - x)^7.
a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 21*a(n-2) + 35*a(n-3) - 35*a(n-4) + 21*a(n-5) - 7*a(n-6) + a(n-7) for n>7.
