Formula
Empirical: a(n) = (1/720)*n^6 - (7/240)*n^5 + (107/144)*n^4 - (209/48)*n^3 + (1609/45)*n^2 + (1913/60)*n - 813 for n>9.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jul 30 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(8 - 42*x + 106*x^2 - 119*x^3 + 10*x^4 + 108*x^5 - 123*x^6 + 58*x^7 + 36*x^8 - 68*x^9 + 33*x^10 - 10*x^11 - 2*x^12 + 10*x^13 - 3*x^14 - x^15) / (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>16.
