%N Number of totally isotropic spaces of index n in orthogonal geometry of dimension 2n.
%C These numbers appear in first column of A155103. - _Mats Granvik_, Jan 20 2009
%C Equals row sums of unsigned triangle A158474. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Mar 20 2009
%C a(n) = (n+2) terms in the sequence (1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...) dot (n+2) terms in the sequence (1, 1, 2, 6, 30, 270, ...). Example: a(4) = 4590 = (1, 2, 4, 8, 16) dot (1, 1, 2, 6, 30, 270) = (1 + 1 + 4 + 24 + 240 + 4320). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Aug 02 2010
%C a(n) is the right-hand side of the mass formula used to classify Type II Self Dual Binary Linear Codes of length 2(n+1). a(n) is the number of distinct Type II Self Dual Binary Linear codes of length 2(n+1) when 2(n+1) = 0 MOD 8. It is important to note that Type II codes are only possible when the length is a multiple of 8. In short, this sequence only applies to Type II codes when 2(n+1) = 0 MOD 8, else the right hand side of the mass formula is zero. - _Nathan J. Russell_, Mar 04 2016
