Number of ways to lace a shoe with n eyelet pairs such that there is no direct "horizontal" connection between any adjacent eyelet pair.

COMMENTS
| The lacing must not have any "straight connections" between adjacent eyelet pairs (e.g. 2<->2*n-1, 3<->2*n-2, 4<->2*n-3,....). There are no symmetric solutions.

EXAMPLE
| The 6 non-straight lacings for n=3 are: 124536, 135426, 142356, 145326, 153246, 154236. Not counting mirror images we get a(3)=3.
