FORMULA

a(n)=2^{2n+6}/sqrt{pi n}Q(1+O(n^{-1})) where Q is a digital search tree constant, Q = 0.2887880951...

MAPLE

g := proc(n, k) option remember; if k=0 then return(1) else if (n=1 and k=1) then return(0) else if (k<0 or k>binomial(n, 2)) then return(0) else g(n-1, k)+g(n, k-1)-g(n-1, k-n) end if end if end if end proc; seq(g(j+7, j), j=0..30);
