%N Leech's tree-labeling problem for n nodes.

%C a(11) >= 48, a(12) >= 55.

%C a(n) is the greatest number k such that there exists a tree with n nodes and integral edge labels such that for each integer 1 <= m <= k, there exists a pair of nodes such that the sum of the edge labels on the path connecting the two nodes equals m. - _Charlie Neder_, Apr 26 2019
