%F From _Petros Hadjicostas_, May 12 2020: (Start)
%F a(n) = n! * Sum_{k=0..n-3} (-1)^k * 2^(2*k-n) * binomial(n-3, k) * binomial(2*n-2*k, n-3) * binomial(n-2*k+3, n-k) for n >= 3. [Special case of a formula by Comtet, but corrected]
%F a(n) = 20 * binomial(2*n-6, n-3) * n!/2^n for n >= 3. [Special case of a formula due to _Reinhard Zumkeller_]
%F a(n) = binomial(-1/2, 3) * binomial(-1/2, n-3) * (-1)^n * n! * 2^n for n >= 3. (End)
