FORMULA

a(n) = 4 floor(n/7) + [0,0,0,0,1,2,3][n%7 + 1]. (Formula corrected by Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Apr 13 2009)

a(n)=a(n-1)+a(n-7)-a(n-8). G.f.: x^4*(1+x)*(1+x^2)/((x^6+x^5+x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1)*(x-1)^2). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Apr 16 2009]

MAPLE

for n from 0 to 120 do printf("%d, ", 4*floor(n/7)+op( (n mod 7)+1, [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3]) ) ; od: [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Apr 16 2009]
