%N Number of ordered trees with n edges and no unary or binary nodes.

%C Also counts sequences of n natural numbers, excluding 1 and 2, such that the sum of every prefix is no more than its length.

%C a(n) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n with all ascents of length >= 3. For example, a(6) = 4 counts U^6.D^6, U^3.D.U^3.D^5, U^3.D^2.U^3.D^4, U^3.D^3.U^3.D^3 where ^ denotes repetition and a dot denotes concatenation. - _David Callan_, Dec 08 2021
