FORMULA
a(n) = (2/5)*(n + 1)*F(2*n+3) + (1/5)*F(2*n+2) - (4/5)*(n + 1)*F(2*n), where F(n) = A000045(n). - Ralf Stephan, May 13 2004
From Emanuele Munarini, Apr 07 2011: (Start)
a(n) = ((4*n + 5)*F(2*n+1) - (2*n + 1)*F(2*n))/5, where F(n) = A000045(n).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(2*n-k, k)*(k + 1).
G.f.: (1 - 3*x + 3*x^2)/(1 - 3*x + x^2)^2.
a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 11*a(n-2) + 6*a(n-3) - a(n-4). (End)
