%N Number of Schroeder paths of length 2n having no UHD, UHHD, UHHHD, ..., where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1), H=(2,0).

%C A Schroeder path is a lattice path starting from (0,0), ending at a point on the x-axis, consisting only of steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and H=(2,0) and never going below the x-axis. Schroeder paths are counted by the large Schroeder numbers (A006318).

%C Equals binomial transform of A119370. - _Paul D. Hanna_, May 17 2006

%F G.f.: (1-2*x+2*x^2 - sqrt(1-8*x+16*x^2-12*x^3+4*x^4))/(2*x*(1-x)). - _Paul D. Hanna_, May 17 2006
