%N Number of non-alternating anti-run compositions of n.
%C A sequence is alternating if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no alternating permutations, even though it does have the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).
%C An anti-run (separation or Carlitz composition) is a sequence with no adjacent equal parts.
