%N Number of maximal rectangles in all L-convex polyominoes of semiperimeter n. An L-convex polyomino is a convex polyomino where any two cells can be connected by a path internal to the polyomino and which has at most 1 change of direction (i.e., one of the four orientations of the letter L). A maximal rectangle in an L-convex polyomino P is a rectangle included in P that is maximal with respect to inclusion.
%C a(n) = Sum_{k>=1} A181368(n,k).

%F G.f. = z^2*(1-z)^6/(1-4z+2z^2)^2.
%e a(3)=2 because the L-convex polyominoes of semiperimeter 3 are the horizontal and the vertical dominoes, each containing one maximal rectangle.
