%N A047171 Number of nonempty subsets of {1,2,...,n} in which exactly 1/2 of the
elements are <= (n-1)/2.
%F A047171 a(n) = A037952(n) - 1. Proof by Ira Gessel: Write down the number of
such subsets with k elements <= (n-1)/2 as a product of two binomial
coefficients, then evaluate the sum using Vandermonde's theorem.
