%N Triple factorial numbers: (3n)!!! = 3^n*n!.

%C For n >= 1 a(n) is the order of the wreath product of the symmetric group S_n and the elementary Abelian group (C_3)^n. - Ahmed Fares (ahmedfares(AT)my-deja.com), May 07 2001

%C Laguerre transform of double factorials 2^n*n! = A000165(n). - _Paul Barry_, Aug 08 2008
