FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-3) + 2a(n-5) - a(n-8) - a(n-10)

EXAMPLE

This sequence is similar to A118647 - where no subsequence of length 4 contains 3 ones. It is obvious that the first 4 terms of these two sequences are the same. There are only 3 sequences of length 5 that contain 3 ones such that no subsequence of length 4 contains 3 ones: 10101, 11001, 10011. Hence the fifth term for this sequence is 3 less than the corresponding term of A118647.
