%N Number of unimodal compositions of n+2 where the maximal part appears exactly twice.

%C Old name was: Expansion of a q-series.

%C a(n) is also the number of 2-colored partitions of n with the same number of parts in each color. - _Shishuo Fu_, May 30 2017

%C From _Gus Wiseman_, Mar 25 2021: (Start)

%C Also the number of even-length compositions of n with alternating parts weakly decreasing. Allowing odd lengths also gives A342528. The version with alternating parts strictly decreasing appears to be A064428. The a(2) = 1 through a(7) = 16 compositions are:

%C (1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

%C (2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5)

%C (3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4)

%C (2,1,1,1) (1,2,1,2) (6,1)

%C (1,3,1,1) (1,3,1,2)

%C (2,1,2,1) (1,4,1,1)

%C (2,2,1,1) (2,2,1,2)
