Table of n, a(n) for n=0..58.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,1,0,-1,-1,1).

FORMULA

a(n > 0) = 2*A001399(n - 3) - A079978(n).

From Colin Barker, Sep 08 2020: (Start)

G.f.: x^3*(1 + x + x^2 - x^3) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 + x)*(1 + x + x^2)).

a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) - a(n-4) - a(n-5) + a(n-6) for n>6.

(End)

EXAMPLE

The a(3) = 1 through a(8) = 10 triples:

(1,1,1) (1,1,2) (1,1,3) (1,1,4) (1,1,5) (1,1,6)

(2,1,1) (1,2,2) (1,2,3) (1,2,4) (1,2,5)

(2,2,1) (2,2,2) (1,3,3) (1,3,4)

(3,1,1) (3,2,1) (2,2,3) (2,2,4)

(4,1,1) (3,2,2) (2,3,3)

(3,3,1) (3,3,2)

(4,2,1) (4,2,2)

(5,1,1) (4,3,1)

(5,2,1)

(6,1,1)

CROSSREFS

A001399(n - 3) = A069905(n) = A211540(n + 2) counts the unordered case.

2*A001399(n - 6) = 2*A069905(n - 3) = 2*A211540(n - 1) counts the strict case.

A001399(n - 6) = A069905(n - 3) = A211540(n - 1) counts the strict unordered case.

A329398 counts these compositions of any length.

A218004 counts strictly increasing or weakly decreasing compositions.

A337484 counts neither strictly increasing nor strictly decreasing compositions.
