FORMULA

G.f.: x*(1+2*x)/(1+x)^2.

a(n) = (n-2)*(-1)^n + 2*0^n.

a(n) = -2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n > 2.

a(n) = A099570(n) for n > 1. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 15 2008

a(n) = (Sum_{k=1..n} k*(-1)^(n-k)*binomial(n-1,k-1)*binomial(2*n-k-1,n-1))/n, n>0, a(0)=0. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Mar 09 2014

a(n) = A038608(n-2) for n > 2. - Georg Fischer, Oct 06 2018

E.g.f.: 2 - exp(-x)*(2 + x). - Stefano Spezia, Mar 07 2023
