FORMULA

E.g.f.: exp(-x-x^2). a(n) = Sum_{k = 0..floor(n/2)} (-1)^(n-k)*k!*binomial(n, k)*binomial(n-k, k). a(n) = -a(n-1)-2*(n-1)*a(n-2), a(0) = 1, a(1) = -1.

A000186(n) ~ n!^2*exp(1)^(-3)*(a(0) + a(1)/n + a(2)/(2*[n]_2) + ... + a(k)/(k!*[n]_k) + ...), where [n]_k = n*(n-1)*...*(n-k + 1), [n]_0 = 1. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Apr 30 2001

a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (-1)^(n-k)*C(k,n-k)*n!/k!}; - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 08 2007
