The sequence A084330 is a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(n)=31a(n-1)-29a(n-2), and the ratio A084330(n+1)/a(n) converges to phi^7 (~29.034441853748633...), where phi is the golden ratio (A001622).

The continued fraction for phi^7 is {29,{29}}, and 29 occurs in the following approximations for n*phi^7: A248786 (29*n+floor(n/29)+0^n-0^(n mod 29)) for A004922 (floor(n*phi^7)), A249079 (29*n+floor(n/29)+0^(1-floor((14+(n mod 29))/29))) for A004942 (round(n*phi^7)), and A248739 (29*n+ceiling(n/29)) for A004962 (ceiling(n*phi^7)).

			For n=3, 31*a(2)-29*a(1) = 31*(33)-29*(2) = 1023-58 = 965.
