FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) +5*a(n-2) -11*a(n-3) -10*a(n-4) +9*a(n-5) +12*a(n-6) -2*a(n-7) -6*a(n-8) +a(n-10).
Empirical g.f.: x*(96 - 28*x - 456*x^2 - 102*x^3 + 510*x^4 + 343*x^5 - 192*x^6 - 210*x^7 + 23*x^8 + 36*x^9) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x - x^2)*(1 - x - x^2)*(1 - 2*x - 4*x^2 - 2*x^3 + x^4 + x^5)). - Colin Barker, Feb 14 2018
