%N Number of conjugacy classes of the symplectic group Sp(2n, 2) over the field with 2 elements

%C Sp(2n, 2) is isomorphic to the orthogonal group O(2n+1, 2) over the field with 2 elements, and is a simple and complete group for n>=3.

%e a(2)=11, and Sp(4, 2) is isomorphic to the symmetric group S_6 which has 11 conjugacy classes.

%Y Discrete convolution of A070933 and A098613. A003923 gives the order of the group.
