FORMULA

a(n)=(n-1)!*2^n. E.g.f.: log(1/(1-2x)).

Let gd(x,n)=Diff(exp(-(1/2)*x^2)*sqrt(2)/(2*sqrt(Pi)), x$n)]=(-1)^((1/2)*n)*(x^2)^((1/2)*n)*2^(-(1/2)*n+1/2)*(exp(I*Pi*n)+1)/(4*sqrt(Pi)*GAMMA(1+(1/2)*n)) be the n-th derivative of the standard Gaussian distribution. Evaluating gd(x,n) at x=1 gives gd(1,n)=2^(-(1/2)*n+1/2)*(exp(I*Pi*n)+1)*(-1)^((1/2)*n)/(4*sqrt(Pi)*GAMMA(1+(1/2)*n)). A066318 is the denominator of the even summands of the taylor series expansion of the Gaussian distribution evaluated at x=1. A066318[n]=denom(gd(1, 2*n))/sqrt(Pi) [From Stephen Crowley, May 16 2009]
