%N G.f. satisfies A(A(x)) = F(x), where F(x) is the g.f. for A001787(n) = n*2^(n-1).
%C A(x) is sometimes called a functional square root, or half-iterate of F(x).

%F Define the sequence b(n,k) as follows. If n<k, b(n,k) = 0, else if n=k, b(n,k) = 1, otherwise b(n,k) = 1/2 * (2^(n-k) * binomial(n+k-1,2*k-1) - Sum_{m=k+1..n-1} b(n,m) * b(m,k)). a(n) = b(n,1). - _Seiichi Manyama_, May 03 2024
