FORMULA
E.g.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^(2*n-1)/(2*n-1)! may be defined as follows.
(1) A(x) = Integral exp(-x*tanh(x)) / cosh(x) dx.
(2) A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} cosh(n*x/N)^n / cosh((n+1)*x/N)^(n+1).
EXAMPLE
E.g.f.: A(x) = x - 3*x^3/3! + 37*x^5/5! - 967*x^7/7! + 42761*x^9/9! - 2840651*x^11/11! + 263226797*x^13/13! - 32337165967*x^15/15! + ...
such that d/dx A(x) = exp(-x*tanh(x)) / cosh(x).
The e.g.f. A(x) may be obtained as the limit of the finite series given by
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * [ 1/cosh(x/N) + cosh(x/N)/cosh(2*x/N)^2 + cosh(2*x/N)^2/cosh(3*x/N)^3 + cosh(3*x/N)^3/cosh(4*x/N)^4 + cosh(4*x/N)^4/cosh(5*x/N)^5 + ... + cosh((N-1)*x/N)^(N-1)/cosh(x)^N ].
Related limits.
The following limits yield the e.g.f. of this sequence, A(x).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..2*N-1} (1-x/N)^n * (1 + (1-x/N)^n )^n / (1 + (1-x/N)^(n+1) )^(n+1).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..2*N-1} exp(-n*x/N) * (1 + exp(-n*x/N) )^n / (1 + exp(-(n+1)*x/N) )^(n+1).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (2*x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} exp(-2*n*x/N) * (1 + exp(-2*n*x/N) )^n / (1 + exp(-2*(n+1)*x/N) )^(n+1).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} cosh(n*x/N)^n / cosh((n+1)*x/N)^(n+1).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} cosh(n*x/N)^n / (cosh(x/N)*cosh(n*x/N) + sinh(x/N)*sinh(n*x/N))^(n+1).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} 1/((1 + tan(x/N)*tanh(n*x/N))^n * cosh(n*x/N)).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} 1/((1 + (x/N)*tanh(n*x/N))^n * cosh(n*x/N)).
A(x) = lim_{N->oo} (x/N) * Sum_{n=0..N-1} exp(-n*x/N * tanh(n*x/N)) / cosh(n*x/N).
The final limit is in the form of an integral, giving the formula
A(x) = Integral exp(-x*tanh(x)) / cosh(x) dx.
