FORMULA

G.f.: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n/(1-4^n*x^2). a(2*n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (4^k)^(2(n-k)); a(2*n+1) = Sum_{k=0..n} (4^k)^(2(n-k)+1).

EXAMPLE

A(x) = 1/(1-x^2) + x/(1-4x^2) + x^2/(1-16x^2) + x^3/(1-64x^2) +...

= 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 5*x^3 + 18*x^4 + 81*x^5 + 514*x^6 +...

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=sum(k=0, n\2, (4^k)^(n-2*k) )
