Examples
Row 9 of Pascal's triangle is: {1,9,36,84,126,126,84,36,9,1}. The terms 36 and 84 are only multiples of four, and both of them occur two times on that row, thus a(9) = 2*2 = 4.
Row 10 of Pascal's triangle is: {1,10,45,120,210,252,210,120,45,10,1}. The terms 120 (= 4*30) and 252 (= 4*63) are only multiples of four, and the former occurs twice, while the latter is alone at the center, thus a(10) = 2+1 = 3.
