%N A006069 Number of directed Hamiltonian cycles (or Gray codes) on n-cube with
a marked starting node.
%C A006069 More precisely, this is the number of ways of making a list of the 2^n
nodes of the n-cube, with a distinguished starting position and a
direction, such that each node is adjacent to the previous one and
the last node is adjacent to the first.

%e A006069 a(1) = 2: we have 1,2 or 2,1.
%e A006069 a(2) = 8: label the nodes 1, 2, ..., 4. Then the 8 possibilities are
1,2,3,4; 1,4,3,2; 2,3,4,1; 2,1,4,3; etc.
