Number of 2nX4 2n X 4 0..4 arrays with values 0..4 introduced in row major order and each element equal to exactly two horizontal and vertical neighbors.
Column 2 of A198253.
Empirical: a(n) = 20*a(n-1) -85*a(n-2) -16*a(n-3) +493*a(n-4) -124*a(n-5) -919*a(n-6) +120*a(n-7) +512*a(n-8).
Empirical g.f.: x*(1 - 15*x + 25*x^2 + 126*x^3 - 185*x^4 - 395*x^5 + 287*x^6 + 444*x^7) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)*(1 - 4*x - x^2 + 8*x^3)*(1 - 16*x + 23*x^2 + 64*x^3)). - Colin Barker, May 14 2018
