%N Number of one-sided polyominoes with n cells.

%C A000105(n) + A030228(n) = a(n) because the number of free polyominoes plus the number of polyominoes lacking bilateral symmetry equals the number of one-sided polyominoes. - _Graeme McRae_, Jan 05 2006

%C Names for the first few polyominoes: monomino, domino, tromino, tetromino, pentomino, hexomino, heptomino, octomino, enneomino (aka nonomino), decomino, hendecomino (aka undecomino), dodecomino, ...

%e a(0) = 1 as there is 1 empty polyomino with #cells = 0. - _Fred Lunnon_, Jun 24 2020

%Y See A006758 for another version. Subtracting 1 gives first column of A195738. Cf. A000105 (unoriented), A030228 (chiral), A030227 (achiral), A001168 (fixed).
