COMMENTS

Normally sequences like this are not included, since with the alternating 0's deleted it is already in the database.

Stirling transform of a(n)=[1,0,6,0,120,0,5040,...] is A089677(n)=[1,1,7,37,271,...]. - Michael Somos Mar 04 2004

Stirling transform of a(n-1)=[0,1,0,6,0,120,0,...] is A00670(n-1)=[0,1,3,13,75,...]. - Michael Somos Mar 04 2004

Stirling transform of a(n-1)=[1,1,0,6,0,120,0,...] is A052856(n-1)=[1,2,4,14,76,...]. - Michael Somos Mar 04 2004
