COMMENT

For all n there is an m such that: ||a(n)| - 2^m| <= 2. In the Python program which will be provided, the sequence (a(n)) is given by 4tesseq(X) where X = 1.5'i + .25(ii + jj + kk + ee) is the generating floretion.

FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1) - 5a(n-2) + 4a(n-3) - 4a(n-4); g.f. (1-10*x+12*x^2-16*x^3)/((x^2-x+1)*(4*x^2+1))

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 32 + (1/2 + 1/2*I*sqrt(3))^4 + (1/2 - 1/2*I*sqrt(3))^4 = 31 -or- a(4) = a(n-1) - 5a(n-2) + 4a(n-3) - 4a(n-4) = -2 - 5*(-9) + 4*(1) - 4*4 = 31

MAPLE

a := n-> (2*I)^n+(-2*I)^n+(1/2+1/2*I*sqrt(3))^n+(1/2-1/2*I*sqrt(3))^n;
