%N Number of LDU's in all skew Dyck paths of semilength n.
%C A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of the path is defined to be the number of its steps.

%F G.f.: z(g-1)^3/(4g - 2zg - 6zg^2 - 3 + 3*z), where g = 1 + zg^2 + z(g-1) = (1 - z - sqrt(1 - 6z + 5z^2))/(2z).
