COMMENT

Binomial transform of (0,1,5,0,0,0,...) Binomial transform is A084899. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jun 10 2003

Also the partial sums of A016861, a zero added in front; therefore a(n) = n (mod 5). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Mar 19 2008

a(n+1) = A153126(n) + n mod 2; a(2*n+1)=A033571(n); a(2*(n+1))=A153127(n)+1. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Dec 20 2008]

Also, let Hep(n) = heptagonal numbers, T(n)= triangular numbers, then Hep(n)= T(n)+4*T(n-1) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Jan 28 2009]
