FORMULA
| a(n)=2*sum(j=0..(n-1)/2, (sum(i=0..(n-2*j)/2, (2*i-n+2*j)^n*binomial(n-2*j,i)*(-1)^(n-j-i)))/(2^(n-2*j)*(n-2*j)!)), n>0, a(0)=1. [From Kruchinin Vladimir (kru(AT)ie.tusur.ru), Jun 10 2011]
a(n) = D^n(exp(x)) evaluated at x = 0, where D is the operator sqrt(1-x^2)*d/dx. Cf. A003724. - Peter Bala, Dec 06 2011

EXAMPLE
| For n=6, there are 6 partitions with part sizes [5,1], 10 with sizes [3^2], 20 with sizes [3,1^3], and 1 with sizes [1^6]; 6 + 10 - 20 + 1 = -3. [From Franklin T. Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Apr 29 2010]
