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

%C Two polyominoes cut from a chessboard are considered the same for this sequence if the shapes of the polyominoes are related by a rotation or translation, and the colorings are related by any symmetry including a reflection. - _Joseph Myers_, Oct 01 2011

%F a(n) = 2*O(n) - M(n) - 2*(R90(n) + R180(n)), where:

%F O(n) = A000988(n),

%F for even n, M(n) = A234006(n/2), otherwise 0,

%F for n multiple of 4, R90(n) = A234007(n/4), otherwise 0,

%F for even n, R180(n) = A234008(n/2), otherwise 0.
