Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..200
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (17,-86,112).
FORMULA
From Mohammad K. Azarian, Dec 28 2008: (Start)
G.f.: 1/(1-2*x) + 1/(1-7*x) + 1/(1-8*x).
E.g.f.: exp(2*x) + exp(7*x) + exp(8*x). (End)
a(n) = 17*a(n-1) - 86*a(n-2) + 112*a(n-3).
