FORMULA

E.g.f.: exp ( sinh x ).

a(n)=sum(1/2^k*sum((-1)^i*binomial(k,i)*(k-2*i)^n,i,0,k)/k!,k,1,n); [From Kruchinin Vladimir (kru(AT)ie.tusur.ru), Aug 22 2010]

a(n) = D^n(exp(x)) evaluated at x = 0, where D is the operator sqrt(1+x^2)*d/dx. Cf. A002017 and A009623. - Peter Bala, Dec 06 2011

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := Sum[((-1)^i*(k - 2*i)^n*Binomial[k, i])/(2^k*k!), {k, 1, n}, {i, 0, k}]; a[0] = 1; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 24}] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Dec 21 2011, after Vladimir Kruchinin *)

PROG

(Maxima) a(n):=sum(1/2^k*sum((-1)^i*binomial(k, i)*(k-2*i)^n, i, 0, k)/k!, k, 1, n); /* From Kruchinin Vladimir (kru(AT)ie.tusur.ru), Aug 22 2010 */
