FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 60*a(n-3) + 85*a(n-4) + 150*a(n-5) - 360*a(n-6) + 396*a(n-8) - 216*a(n-9).
Empirical g.f.: x*(81 - 315*x - 665*x^2 + 3549*x^3 + 270*x^4 - 12000*x^5 + 6300*x^6 + 12420*x^7 - 9720*x^8) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)*(1 - 3*x)*(1 - 2*x^2)*(1 - 3*x^2)*(1 - 6*x^2)). - Colin Barker, Apr 09 2018
