Let C(n) = 4^n*Gamma(n+1/2)/(sqrt(Pi)*Gamma(n+2)), then C'(n) = C(n)*(H(n-1/2) - H(n+1) + log(4)), where H(n) = Sum_{k>=1} (1/k-1/(n+k)) are harmonic numbers.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = numerator(d(n)), where d(n) satisfies recurrence: d(0) = -1, d(1) = 1/2, (n+1)^2*d(n) = 2*(4*n^2-2*n-1)*d(n-1) - 4*(2*n-3)^2*d(n-2).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
For n = 3, C'(3) = 59/12, so a(3) = numerator(59/12) = 59.
