Formula
Empirical: a(n) = 43*a(n-1) -798*a(n-2) +8358*a(n-3) -54201*a(n-4) +224427*a(n-5) -589112*a(n-6) +936452*a(n-7) -807408*a(n-8) +282240*a(n-9).
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Feb 05 2018: (Start)
G.f.: 4*x*(2 - 70*x + 1029*x^2 - 8253*x^3 + 39228*x^4 - 112119*x^5 + 185785*x^6 - 160106*x^7 + 53244*x^8) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 3*x)*(1 - 4*x)*(1 - 5*x)*(1 - 6*x)*(1 - 7*x)^2*(1 - 8*x)).
a(n) = (-980 - 147*2^(2+n) - 245*2^(1+2*n) - 490*3^n - 245*2^(2+n)*3^n - 588*5^n + 7818*7^n + 735*8^n + 120*7^n*n) / 5880.
