Abstract
We find a general explicit formula for all sequences satisfying a two-term recurrence of a certain kind. This generalizes familiar formulas for the Stirling and Lah numbers.
► A formula for certain two-term recurrent sequences is derived. ► Our study generalizes familiar formulas for the Stirling and Lah numbers. ► Our results are proved algebraically and use the Lagrange interpolation formula.
