COMMENTS
The sequence (the second in the family) is present as a family of single interleaved sequence of which are separated or factored out of the larger sequence to give individual sequences. The larger sequence produces two smaller interleaved sequences where one of them has the formula above and a first interleaved sequence. There are a total of two sequences in this family.
