FORMULA

E.g. for n=7 and r>=1, a(7, r)=2*720^r+(-1)^r*2*120^r+2*48^r+(-1)^r*36^r+6^r (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 ...

0 4 0 4 0 4 ...

5 13 23 49 95 193 ...

0 104 0 2720 0 93824 ...
