%N Number of intersection points of diagonals of an n-gon in general position, plus number of vertices.
%C If Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n >= 4, a(n-3) is the number of 4-subsets of X which have neither one element nor two elements in common with Y; a(n-3) is then also the number of (n-4)-subsets of X which have neither one element nor two elements in common with Y. - _Milan Janjic_, Dec 28 2007
