FORMULA

Empirical for column k:

k=1: a(n) = 8*a(n-1)

k=2: a(n) = 9*a(n-1)

k=3: a(n) = 21*a(n-1)

k=4: a(n) = 49*a(n-1)

k=5: a(n) = 117*a(n-1) -294*a(n-2)

k=6: a(n) = 282*a(n-1) -3969*a(n-2) +9604*a(n-3)

k=7: a(n) = 692*a(n-1) -43569*a(n-2) +847042*a(n-3) -6303164*a(n-4) +15731352*a(n-5)

Empirical for row n:

n=1: a(n) = 3*a(n-1)

n=2: a(n) = 7*a(n-1) for n>2

n=3: a(n) = 18*a(n-1) -27*a(n-2) for n>4

n=4: a(n) = 48*a(n-1) -402*a(n-2) +1064*a(n-3) -789*a(n-4) for n>7

n=5: [order 9] for n>13

n=6: [order 20] for n>25

n=7: [order 51] for n>57
