%N Gaussian binomial coefficient [n,2] for q=2.

%C Number of 4-block coverings of an n-set where every element of the set is covered by exactly 3 blocks (if offset is 3), so a(n) = (1/4!)*(4^n-6*2^n+8). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Feb 20 2001

%C Number of non-coprime pairs of polynomials (f,g) with binary coefficients where both f and g have degree n+1 and nonzero constant term. - _Luca Mariot_ and _Enrico Formenti_, Sep 26 2016

%C Number of triplets found from the integers 1 to 2^n-1 by converting to binary and performing an XOR operation on the corresponding bits of each pair. Defining addition in this carryless way (0+0=1+1=0, 0+1=1+0=1), each triplet (A,B,C) has the property A+B=C, A+C=B and B+C=A. For example, n=3 gives the 7 triplets (1,2,3), (1,4,5), (1,6,7), (2,4,6), (2,5,7), (3,4,7) and (3,5,6). Each integer appears in the set of triplets 2^(n-1)-1 times, for example 3 for n=3. - _Ian Duff_, Oct 05 2019

%C Number of 2-dimensional vector subspaces of (Z_2)^n, so also number of Klein subgroups of the group (C_2)^n. - _Robert FERREOL_, Jul 28 2021
