Triangle of coefficients in the numerators of rational functions in tanh(1) that express the (2n)th du Bois-Reymond constants as C_0 = 0, C_2 = -4 - 1/(1-tanh(1)), for n>1, C_2n = -3 - (Sum_{k=0..n} a(n,k)*tanh(1)^k) / (2^n*n! * (1-tanh(1))^n).

COMMENTS
For n>0 the row sums = (-1)^(n-1) * (n-1)! For n odd, the sum of the absolute values of the coefficients in the n-th row = (2*(n-1))!/n! (every other entry of A001761).
The sum of the (2n)th du Bois-Reymond constants = 1/5 or is very close to 1/5.
For the 6th and 9th rows, the coefficients were adjusted from results of the residue evaluations so that double factorials ((2n)!! = 2^n*n! (A000165)) are in the denominators. For the 6th row they were multiplied by 3, for the 9th row they were multiplied by 9.
For n>1, Sum_{k=0..n} (n-k+1)*a(n,k) = (-1)^(n)*A001286(n-1) [A001286 are Lah numbers: (n-1)*n!/2].

FORMULA
For n>1, C_2n = -3 - 2 * Residue_{x=i} (x^2/((1+x^2)^n * (tan(x) - x))) (see MathWorld article).
For n>1, Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n+k)*a(n, k) = (2*(n-1))!/n! (i.e., A001761(n-1)).
