FORMULA
G.f. = z^2*(1-z)^2*(3-z^2)/[(1+z)(1-4z+2z^2)]^2.
EXAMPLE
a(2)=3 because in (0/2), (1/1), (2,0), (1,0 / 0,1), (0,1 / 1,0), (1,1 / 0,0), and (0,0 / 1,1) (the 2-compositions are written as (top row / bottom row)) we have 1+1+1+0+0+0+0=3 columns with even sums.
MAPLE
g := z^2*(1-z)^2*(3-z^2)/((1+z)^2*(1-4*z+2*z^2)^2): gser := series(g, z = 0, 30): seq(coeff(gser, z, n), n = 0 .. 27);
