%N Number of colorings of labeled graphs on n nodes using exactly 2 colors, divided by 4.
%C A coloring of a simple graph is a choice of color for each graph vertex such that no two vertices sharing the same edge have the same color. A213441 counts those colorings of labeled graphs on n vertices that use exactly two colors. This sequence is 1/4 of A213441 (1/4 of column 2 of Table 1 in Read). - _Peter Bala_, Apr 11 2013
%C A047863 counts colorings of labeled graphs on n vertices that use two or fewer colors. - _Peter Bala_, Apr 11 2013
