COMMENT

G.f.: x^3*(3-2*x)/(1-x)^6. 3*binomial(n+2,5)-2*binomial(n+1,5)

a(n) = A111808(n,5) for n>4. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)lhsystems.com), Aug 17 2005

If Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n>=7, a(n-4) is the number of 5-subsets of X having at most one element in common with Y. - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Nov 23 2007
