%N a(n) = n!*n*(n-1)*(n-2)/36.
%C a(n) is the total number of 3-2-1 patterns in all permutations on [n]. This is because there are n! permutations, binomial(n,3) triples in each one and the probability that a given triple of entries in a random permutation form a 3-2-1 pattern (or any other specified pattern of length 3) is 1/6. - _David Callan_, Oct 26 2006
%C Old name was "Coefficients of Laguerre polynomials".
