FORMULA

E.g.f.: sech x or gd x. - Tamas Kalmar-Nagy (integers(AT)kalmarnagy.com), Sep 28 2007

EXAMPLE

log(tan(x)+1/cos(x)) = x + 1/6*x^3 + 1/24*x^5 + 61/5040*x^7 + 277/72576*x^9 + ...

gd(x) = x - 1/6*x^3 + 1/24*x^5 - 61/5040*x^7 + 277/72576*x^9 + ....

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=local(X); if(n<0, 0, X=x+O(x^(2*n+2)); numerator(polcoeff(tan(X)+1/cos(X), 2*n+1)))
