COMMENT

a(n) is the sum of the first six terms of the nth row in Pascal's triangle. [From Geoffrey Critzer (critzer.geoffrey(AT)usd443.org), Jan 19 2009]

Also the interpolating polynomial for the divisors of 32: {a(k):0<=k<6}={1,2,4,8,16,32}. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Jun 17 2009]
