Numbers == 1, 3, 7, 13 modulo 20. - Ralf Stephan, May 15 2007
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-4) - a(n-5), with a(0)=1, a(1)=3, a(2)=7, a(3)=13, a(4)=21. - Harvey P. Dale, Apr 09 2012
G.f.: (1+2*x+4*x^2+6*x^3+7*x^4)/((1-x)^2*(1+x+x^2+x^3)). - Harvey P. Dale, Apr 09 2012
a(n) = 5*n - (3-(-1)^n)/2 + i^n + (-i)^n, where i=sqrt(-1). - Colin Barker, Oct 16 2015
E.g.f.: (5*x-1)*cosh(x) + (5*x-2)*sinh(x) + 2*cos(x). - G. C. Greubel, Jun 30 2022
