%C Previous name was: Difference between the double factorial of the n-th nonnegative even number and the double factorial of the n-th nonnegative odd number.

%C In other words, a(n) = b(2n+2)-b(2n+1), where b = A006882. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Dec 14 2011 [Corrected _Peter Luschny_, Dec 01 2014]

%C a(n) is the number of linear chord diagrams on 2n+2 vertices with one marked chord such that none of the remaining n chords are contained within the marked chord, see [Young]. - _Donovan Young_, Aug 11 2020
