FORMULA

Empirical for row n:

n=1: a(n) = 2*n + 2

n=2: a(n) = 2*n^2 + 8*n

n=3: a(n) = 2*a(n-1) +a(n-2) -4*a(n-3) +a(n-4) +2*a(n-5) -a(n-6); also a polynomial of degree 3 plus a quasipolynomial of degree 1 with period 2

n=4: a(n) = (14/3)*n^4 + (56/3)*n^3 + (121/3)*n^2 - (5/3)*n + 2

n=5: [linear recurrence of order 10; also a polynomial of degree 5 plus a quasipolynomial of degree 3 with period 2]

n=6: a(n) = (1987/180)*n^6 + (2033/30)*n^5 + (2785/18)*n^4 + 226*n^3 - (3017/180)*n^2 + (697/30)*n

n=7: [order 14; also a polynomial of degree 7 plus a quasipolynomial of degree 5 with period 2]
