A025179 a(n) = number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(n)) such that s(i) is an integer, s(0) = 0, |s(1)| = 1, |s(i) - s(i-1)| <= 1 for i >= 2, s(n) = 1. Also a(n) = T(n,n-1), where T is the array defined in A025177. 4

FORMULA

Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} binomial(n, 2*k)*binomial(2*k+1, k+1). E.g.f.: exp(x)*(BesselI(0, 2*x)+BesselI(2, 2*x)). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Jan 01 2004

G.f.: ((1-x)^2-(1-x)sqrt(1-2x-3x^2))/(2x*sqrt(1-2x-3x^2)); a(n+1)=sum{k=0..n, C(n, k)C(k+1, k/2+1)(1+(-1)^k)/2}; - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 17 2005
