Table of n, a(n) for n=0..17.

Formula

a(n) ~ c * n^(2*n + 2) / exp(2*n), where c = 6.9478401587876967481571909904361736371398357108358019737901443045685048723... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 14 2021

Example

a(1) =    2 because 1/(1*2)                               = 1/2.
a(2) =   13 because 1/(1*2 + 1/(2*3))                     = 6/13.
a(3) =  158 because 1/(1*2 + 1/(2*3 + 1/(3*4)))           = 73/158.
a(4) = 3173 because 1/(1*2 + 1/(2*3 + 1/(3*4 + 1/(4*5)))) = 1466/3173.

Mathematica

a[0] = 1; a[1] = 2; a[n_] := a[n] = n (n + 1) a[n - 1] + a[n - 2]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 17}]
