%F A000318 The g.f. has the following continued fraction expansion: g.f. = [4, b(0),
c(0), b(1), c(1), b(2), c(2), ...] where b(n) = sum(k=0, n, 1/(2*k+1))^2
/ (128*(n+1)*x), c(n) = -4/( sum(k=0, n, 1/(2*k+1))*sum(k=0, n+1,
1/(2*k+1))*(2*n+3) ) and each convergent of this continued fraction
is a Pad'e approximant of the McLaurin series sum(k=1, \infty, a(n)*x^(n-1)).
