%N Number of chiral pairs of rows of n colors with exactly 5 different colors.

%C If the row is achiral, i.e., the same as its reverse, we ignore it. If different from its reverse, we count it and its reverse as a chiral pair.

%F a(n) = (k!/2) * (S2(n,k) - S2(ceiling(n/2),k)), with k=5 colors used and where S2(n,k) is the Stirling subset number A008277.

%F a(n) = (A001118(n) - A056456(n)) / 2.

%F a(n) = A001118(n) - A056312(n) = A056312(n) - A056456(n).

%F G.f.: -(k!/2) * (x^(2k-1) + x^(2k)) / Product_{j=1..k} (1 - j*x^2) + (k!/2) * x^k / Product_{j=1..k} (1 - j*x) with k=5 colors used.

%e For a(5) = 60, the chiral pairs are the 5! = 120 permutations of ABCDE, each paired with its reverse.

%t k=5; Table[(k!/2) (StirlingS2[n,k] - StirlingS2[Ceiling[n/2],k]), {n, 1, 40}]

%o (PARI) a(n) = 60*(stirling(n, 5, 2) - stirling(ceil(n/2), 5, 2)); \\ _Altug Alkan_, Sep 26 2018

%Y Fifth column of A305622.

%Y A056456(n) is number of achiral rows of n colors with exactly 5 different colors.

%Y Cf. A001118, A056312.
