MAPLE

b:= proc(n) option remember; binomial (n, floor (n/2)) end: c:= proc(n) option remember; binomial (2*n, n) /(n+1) end: a:= proc(m) local n; n:=m-2; (add (c(k)*c(n-k) +b(k)*b(n-k), k=0..n)) /4 +`if` (irem(n, 2)=0, c(n/2)/2, 0) end: seq (a(n), n=2..30); [From Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Feb 03 2009]

MATHEMATICA

b[n_] := Binomial[n, Floor[n/2]]; c[n_] := Binomial[2n, n]/(n+1); a[m_] := (n = m-2; Sum[c[k]*c[n-k] + b[k]*b[n-k], {k, 0, n}]/4 + If[Mod[n, 2] == 0, c[n/2]/2, 0]); Table[a[n], {n, 2, 30}] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Jul 20 2011, after A. P. Heinz *)
