COMMENT

Column 0 of A118869.

FORMULA

G.f.=(1+z^2)/[1-2z+z^2*(1-z)^2]. Recurrence relation: a(n)=2a(n-1)-a(n-2)+2a(n-3)-a(n-4) for n>=4.

EXAMPLE

a(5)=28 because among the 32 (=2^5) binary sequences of length 5 only 01010,01011,00101, and 10101 contain the subsequence 0101.

MAPLE

a[0]:=1:a[1]:=2:a[2]:=4:a[3]:=8: for n from 4 to 35 do a[n]:=2*a[n-1]-a[n-2]+2*a[n-3]-a[n-4] od: seq(a[n], n=0..35);
