COMMENT

Number of permutations of length n+3 containing exactly once 132 and 123. Likewise for pattern pairs (123,213), (231,321), (312,321).

a(n) is the number of ways to assign n distinct contestants to two (not necessarily equal) distinct teams and then choose a captain for each team. [From Geoffrey Critzer (critzer.geoffrey(AT)usd443.org), Apr 07 2009]
