FORMULA

Constant term of prod(k=-n, n, 1+x^k).

a(n) = sum_i A067059(2n+1-i, i) = 2+2*sum_j A047997(n, j); i.e. sum of alternate antidiagonals of A067059 and two more than twice row sums of A047997. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Aug 11 2002

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=polcoeff(prod(k=-n, n, 1+x^k), 0)
