FORMULA
T(n,k) = 0 if n is odd and k is even;
T(n,k) = binomial((n-1)/2-k,(k-1)/2) if n is odd and k is odd;
T(n,k) = binomial((n-2)/2-k,(k-1)/2) if n is even and k is odd;
T(n,k) = binomial((n-2)/2-k,(k-2)/2) if n is even and k is even.
EXAMPLE
For n=24 and k=3, T(24,3) = 8 = binomial((24-2)/2-3, (3-1)/2) = binomial(8,1).
