%N Number of set partitions of {1, ..., n} that avoid enhanced 3-crossings (or enhanced 3-nestings).
%C Also the number of 2-regular 3-noncrossing partitions. There is a bijection from 2-regular 3-noncrossing partitions of n to enhanced partition of n-1. - Jing Qin (qj(AT)cfc.nankai.edu.cn), Oct 30 2007
%C It appears that this is the number of sequences of length n, starting with a(1) = 1 and 1 <= a(2) <= 2, with 1 <= a(n) <= max(a(n-1),a(n-2)) + 1 for n > 2. - _Franklin T. Adams-Watters_, May 27 2008
