%N A089243 Number of partitions into strokes of the edges of a star graph with n
edges.
%C A089243 Two arrangements are considered the same if one is a rotation or reflection
of the other.
%C A089243 A "stroke" is defined as follows. If the following conditions are satisfied
then the partition to directed paths on a directed graph is called
"a partition to strokes on a directed graph". And all directed paths
in the partition are called "strokes". C.1. Two different directed
paths in a partition do not have the same edges. C.2. A union of
two different paths in a partition does not become a directed path.
In other word, a "stroke" is a locally maximal path on a directed
graph.
%C A089243 This sequence has its origin in the strokes made when writing Japanese
Kanji.
%e A089243 n=3: this the Y graph. Call the center node "0" and the terminal nodes
"1", "2", "3". Four partitions exist as follows:
%e A089243 {1->0->2, 0->3}
%e A089243 {1->0->2, 3->0}
%e A089243 {1->0, 2->0, 3->0}
%e A089243 {0->1, 0->2, 0->3}
%e A089243 So a(3)=4.
