FORMULA

a(n) = 3n^2-n+1 = a(n-1)+6n-4 = 2a(n-1)-a(n-2)+6 = 3a(n-1)-3a(n-2)+a(n-3) = A056105(n)+n = A056107(n)-n = A056108(n)-2n = A056109(n)-3n = A003215(n)-4n

E.g.f.: (1+2x+3x^2)exp(x). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Mar 13 2003

a(n)=6*n+a(n-1)-10 (with a(1)=1) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 09 2009]

EXAMPLE

For n=2, a(2)=6*2+1-10=3; n=3, a(3)=6*3+3-10=11; n=4, a(4)=6*4+11-10=25 [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Nov 09 2009]

MATHEMATICA

s=1; lst={s}; Do[s+=n+1; AppendTo[lst, s], {n, 1, 6!, 6}]; lst [From Vladimir Orlovsky (4vladimir(AT)gmail.com), Oct 25 2008]
