A114492 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n and having k DDUU's, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) (0<=k<=floor(n/2)-1 for n>=2). 5

COMMENTS
Rows 0 and 1 contain one term each; row n contains floor(n/2) terms (n>=2).
Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 yields A086581.
Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..floor(n/2)-1) = binomial(2n-3,n-4) (A003516).

FORMULA
G.f.: G=G(t, z) satisfies z(t+z-tz)G^2-(1-2(1-t)z+(1-t)z^2)G+1-z+tz=0.
EXAMPLE
T(5,1) = 7 because we have UU(DDUU)DUDD, UU(DDUU)UDDD, UDUU(DDUU)DD, their mirror images and UUU(DDUU)DDD (the DDUU's are shown between parentheses).
