%N a(n) = (15*n)!*(n/2)!/((15*n/2)!*(5*n)!*(3*n)!).
%C Fractional factorials are defined in terms of the gamma function, for example, (n/2)! := gamma(n/2 + 1).
%C This is only conjecturally an integer sequence. The similarly defined sequence (15*n)!*floor(n/2)!/(floor(15*n/2)!*(5*n)!*(3*n)!) = A211418(15*n) is integral.
%C Let u(n) = (30*n)!*n!/((15*n)!*(10*n)!*(6*n)!) = A211417(n). This sequence of ratios of factorials is integral and was used by Chebyshev in his estimate of the number of primes less than or equal to a fixed integer n. The three sequences u(1/2*n), u(1/3*n) and u(1/5*n) also appear to be integral (checked up to n = 200). This is the sequence u(1/2*n). See A276101( u(1/3*n) ) and A276102( u(1/5*n) ).
%C The generating function for u(n) is Hypergeom([29/30, 23/30, 19/30, 17/30, 13/30, 11/30, 7/30, 1/30], [4/5, 3/5, 2/5, 1/5, 2/3, 1/3, 1/2], (2^14*3^9*5^5)*x) and is known to be algebraic - see Rodriguez-Villegas. Are the generating functions for u(1/2*n), u(1/3*n) and u(1/5*n) also algebraic?
