FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-1)+98*a(n-2)-98*a(n-3)-a(n-4)+a(n-5). - Colin Barker, Dec 15 2014
G.f.: x^2*(5*x^3+9*x^2-45*x-1) / ((x-1)*(x^2-10*x+1)*(x^2+10*x+1)). - Colin Barker, Dec 15 2014
a(n) = (-(5/8)*sqrt(6)-3/2)*(5-2*sqrt(6))^n+(-3/2+(5/8)*sqrt(6))*(5+2*sqrt(6))^n-1/3+(-(1/3)*sqrt(6)-5/6)*(-5+2*sqrt(6))^n+((1/3)*sqrt(6)-5/6)*(-5-2*sqrt(6))^n. - Robert Israel, Dec 15 2014
