%N Schroeder paths with two rise colors and two level colors.

%C Hankel transform is 8^C(n+1,2). - _Philippe Deléham_, Feb 04 2009

%C a(n-1) is also the number of ways a list of n items can be grouped into nested sublists (e.g., [a b c] to [a b c], [[a] b c], [[a, b] c], [[a [b]] c], and so on). - _Ryan Tosh_, Nov 10 2021
