%N a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)^(2*k+1).
%C Ignoring initial term a(0), equals the logarithmic derivative of A206157.
%F Limit n->infinity a(n)^(1/n^2) = r^(2*r^2/(1-2*r)) = 2.3520150420944489879258119..., where r = 0.70350607643066243... (see A220359) is the root of the equation (1-r)^(2*r-1) = r^(2*r). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Mar 03 2014
