FORMULA

a(n) = (1-(2*n+3)*(-1)^n-2*(-1)^((2*n+1-(-1)^n)/4))/4. - Luce ETIENNE, Sep 04 2016
a(n) = cos((n-1)*Pi)*(2*n+3+2*cos(n*Pi/2)-cos(n*Pi)+2*sin(n*Pi/2))/4. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Oct 02 2017
G.f.: -(1 - x - x^2 - x^3) / ((1 - x)*(1 + x)^2*(1 + x^2)).
a(n) = (1 - 3*(-1)^n - (1-i)*(-i)^n - (1+i)*i^n - 2*(-1)^n*n) / 4 were i=sqrt(-1).
