FORMULA
G.f.: 1/(1-x*(1+x)^3).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(3*(n-k), k).
a(n) = a(n-1)+3*a(n-2)+3*a(n-3)+a(n-4).
a(n) = A003269(3n).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(3*k,n-k) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*C(4*k,n)/C(4*k,k). - Paul Barry, Feb 04 2006
G.f.: 1/(G(0) - x) where G(k) = 1 - (2*k+3)*x/(2*k+1 - x*(k+2)*(2*k+1)/(x*(k+2) - (k+1)/G(k+1))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 23 2012
