%N Number of maximally biased free polyominoes with n squares.
%C Define the bias of a polyomino to be the difference between the number of black squares and the number of white squares when chessboard coloring is applied to the polyomino. Maximally biased polyominoes of size n are those sharing the maximum value of bias among all polyominoes of n squares. For n = 4m + 1, for integer m, all maximally biased polyominoes may be built starting with a monomino and then successively adding "airplane" tetrominoes.
