COMMENTS
Number of symmetric positions of non-attacking rooks on upper-diagonal part of 2n X 2n chessboard.
Number of length-n restricted growth strings (RGS) [s(0),s(1),...,s(n-1)] where s(0)=0 and s(k)<=2+max(prefix) for k>=1, see example. - Joerg Arndt, Apr 25 2010
Number of achiral color patterns in a row or loop of length 2n-1. Two color patterns are equivalent if the colors are permuted. - Robert A. Russell, Apr 24 2018

FORMULA
Binomial transform of A002872 (sorting numbers).
E.g.f.: exp(x+exp(x)+exp(2*x)/2-3/2) = exp(x+sum(j=1,2, (exp(j*x)-1)/j ) ). - Joerg Arndt, Apr 29 2011
From Robert A. Russell, Apr 24 2018: (Start)
Aodd[n,k] = [n>1]*(k*Aodd[n-1,k]+Aodd[n-1,k-1]+Aodd[n-1,k-2])+[n==1]*[k==1]
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..2n-1} Aodd[n,k]. (End)
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} Stirling2(n, k)*A005425(k-1). (from Knuth reference) - Robert A. Russell, Apr 28 2018
EXAMPLE
From Joerg Arndt, Apr 25 2010: (Start)
For n=0 there is one empty string (term a(0)=0 not included here); for n=1 there is one string [0]; for n=2 there are 3 strings [00], [01], and [02];
for n=3 there are a(3)=12 strings (in lexicographic order):
01: [000],
02: [001],
03: [002],
04: [010],
05: [011],
06: [012],
07: [013],
08: [020],
09: [021],
10: [022],
11: [023],
12: [024].
(End)
For a(3) = 12, both the row and loop patterns are AAAAA, AABAA, ABABA, ABBBA, AABCC, ABACA, ABBBC, ABCAB, ABCBA, ABCBD, ABCDA, and ABCDE. - Robert A. Russell, Apr 24 2018
