FORMULA

E.g. for n=7 and r>=1, a(7, r)=(2*720^(r-1)+(-1)^r*2*120^(r-1)+2*48^(r-1)+(-1)^r*36^(r-1)+6^r)/7 (more generally, a(7, r, h)=7^(h-2)*(2*720^m+(-1)^r*2*120^m+2*48^m+(-1)^r*36^m+6^r) for 7-sheeted coverings of the non-orientable surface of genus h>=1, where m=h+r-2).

EXAMPLE

The array begins:

1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...

0 2 0 2 0 2 0 ...

1 3 5 11 21 43 85 ...

0 8 0 128 0 3968 0 ...
