%N Number of shapes of grid-filling curves of order n (on the square grid) with turns by +-90 degrees that are generated by folding morphisms.

%C a(0)=1 and a(1)=1 correspond to the trivial (empty and single-stroke) curves of orders 0 and 1 respectively.

%C a(2) = 1 corresponds to the Heighway-Harter dragon (also known as paperfolding dragon).
