FORMULA

a(n) = Sum(k=1..n, t(n, k)*C(k, ceiling[k/2])), where t(n, k) is the n-th row in the Pascal-like triangle of A090349 and C(k, i) is the binomial coefficient.

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 4*C(1,1) + 6*C(2,1) + 0*C(3,2) + 1*C(4,2) = 4 + 12 + 0 + 6 = 22; cf. the example grammar in A090349.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A090349.
