FORMULA

G.f.: x*(1+8*x+6*x^2)/(1-x)^7. - Paul Barry, Aug 05 2004

E.g.f. with offset -2: exp(x)*(1*(x^3)/3! + 11*(x^4)/4! + 25*(x^5)/5! + 15*(x^6)/6!). For the coefficients [1, 11, 25, 15] see triangle A112493. E.g.f.: 1/48*x*exp(x)*(x^5+22*x^4+152*x^3+384*x^2+312*x+48)/48. Above given e.g.f. differentiated twice.

a(n) = (binomial(n+4,n-1)-binomial(n+3,n-2))*(binomial(n+2,n-1)-binomial(n+1,n-2)). - Zerinvary Lajos, May 12 2006

a(n) = binomial(n+1,2)*binomial(n+3,4). - Vladimir Shevelev, Dec 18 2011

O.g.f. is D^3(x/(1-x)) = D^4(x), where D is the operator x/(1-x)*d/dx. - Peter Bala, Jul 02 2012
