Formula

a(n) = A107876(2n,n).

Example

a(0) = 1: the empty path.
a(1) = 1: uudd.
a(2) = 3: uuuduuuudddddd, uuudduuuuddddd, uuuddduuuudddd.

Maple

a:= proc(m) option remember; local b; b:=
      proc(n, i) option remember; `if`(i>=2*m, 1,
        add(b(n+i-j, i+1), j=1..n+i))
      end; b(0, m+1)
    end:
seq(a(n), n=0..20);

Mathematica

a[m_] := a[m] = Module[{b}, b[n_, i_] := b[n, i] = If[i >= 2m, 1, Sum[b[n + i - j, i + 1], {j, 1, n + i}]]; b[0, m + 1]];
