Colin Barker, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..503
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,9602,-9602,-1,1).
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+9602*a(n-2)-9602*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5).
G.f.: -x*(x^4+480*x^3-1762*x^2+480*x+1) / ((x-1)*(x^2-98*x+1)*(x^2+98*x+1)).
EXAMPLE
481 is in the sequence because it is the 13th octagonal number and the 16th centered square number.
