%N a(n) is the number of subsets of {1..n} that contain exactly 3 odd and 1 even numbers.

%C The general formula for the number of subsets of {1..n} that contain exactly k odd and j even numbers is binomial(ceiling(n/2), k) * binomial(floor(n/2), j).

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_09">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (1,4,-4,-6,6,4,-4,-1,1).

%F a(n) = binomial(ceiling(n/2),3) * binomial(floor(n/2), 1).

%F From _Colin Barker_, Mar 15 2020: (Start)

%F G.f.: x^5*(2 + x + x^2) / ((1 - x)^5*(1 + x)^4).

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + 4*a(n-2) - 4*a(n-3) - 6*a(n-4) + 6*a(n-5) + 4*a(n-6) - 4*a(n-7) - a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>8.

%F (End)

%e a(7)=12 and the 12 subsets are {1,2,3,5}, {1,2,3,7}, {1,2,5,7}, {1,3,4,5}, {1,3,4,7}, {1,3,5,6}, {1,3,6,7}, {1,4,5,7}, {1,5,6,7}, {2,3,5,7}, {3,4,5,7}, {3,5,6,7}.
