%N Orchard crossing number of complete bipartite graph K_{1,n}.

%C Also the minimum number of transitive triples in a tournament on n nodes, i.e., a(n) = C(n,3) - A006918(n-2). - _Leen Droogendijk_, Nov 10 2014

%C a(n) = the number of binary strings of length n+1 with exactly one pair of adjacent 0's and exactly two pairs of adjacent 1's. - _Jeremy Dover_, Jul 07 2016
