Problem 55990. Next Tribonacci Number

The "Tribonacci" sequence is an extension of the idea of the Fibonacci sequence:
That is, each new term is the sum of the three previous terms.
The first 10 Tribonacci numbers are: 0, 1, 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 24, 44, 81.
Given a value N, find the smallest Tribonacci number greater than N. You can assume N is a positive integer.
For example, if N = 42, your function should return 44. If N = 17, your function should return 24.
