%N Coefficients of x^n in the (n+1)-th self-composition of the g.f. of A120010: a(n) = [x^n] { (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/2 o x/(1-(n+1)*x) o (x-x^2) } for n>=1.
%C Secondary diagonal of A120019, the table of self-compositions of A120010.
%F a(n) = Sum_{j=1..n} Catalan(n-j)*[Sum_{i=1..j} (-1)^(j-i)*(n+1)^(i-1)*C(n-j+i, j-i)*C(n-j+i-1, i-1)], where Catalan(n) = A000108(n) = C(2n, n)/(n+1).
%e Successive self-compositions of F(x), the g.f. of A120010, begin:

%e F(F(x)) = (1)x + 2x^2 + 4x^3 + 10x^4 + 32x^5 + 116x^6 + 440x^7 +...
