This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Formula

Empirical: a(n) = 27*a(n-1) - 243*a(n-2) + 729*a(n-3) for n > 6.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jun 16 2017: (Start)
G.f.: 24*x^2*(15 + 49*x - 839*x^2 + 2007*x^3 - 1296*x^4) / (1 - 9*x)^3.
a(n) = 16*3^(2*n-7)*(-449 + 60*n + 256*n^2) for n > 3.
