FORMULA

G.f. for a(n+1) satisfies A(x)=x*(1+A(x)^2+A(x)^3). (Bower)

a(n)=sum(((n)!/(k!*j!*(n-k-j+1)!)*[2*k+3*j=n], k=0..floor(n/2), j=0..floor(n/3)). - Len Smiley (smiley(AT)mazzy.math.uaa.alaska.edu), Jun 18 2005

EXAMPLE

a(7)=21: 7 rotations of [12][34][567], 7 rotations of [12][45][367], 7 rotations of [12][37][456]

MAPLE

a:=proc(n::nonnegint) local k, j; a(n):=0; for k from 0 to floor(n/2) do for j from 0 to floor(n/3) do if (2*k+3*j=n) then a(n):=a(n)+(n)!/(k!*j!*(n-k-j+1)!) fi od od; print(a(n)) end proc; seq(a(i), i=0..30); (Smiley)
