COMMENT

Thus we get a self-reference sequence that grows exponentially. a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + a(n-3) + a(n-6) + a(n-11) + a(n-20) + ...

A fibonacci-like sequence, even closer to the tribonacci numbers.

Lim n-> oo log (a(n))/n converges.

EXAMPLE

a(6) = 20 because 20 = a(5) + a(4) + a(3) = 11 + 6 + 3

a(8) = 71 because 71 = a(7) + a(6) + a(5) + a(2) = 38 + 20 + 11 + 2
