FORMULA

a(n)=Sum(k*T(n,k),k=1..n), where T(n,k) (A121692) is defined by T(n,1)=1; T(n,n)=1; T(n,k)=k*T(n-1,k)+2*T(n-1,k-1)+Sum(T(n-1,j), j=1..k-2) for k<=n; T(n,k)=0 for k>n.

EXAMPLE

a(2)=3 because the deco polyominoes of height 2 are the horizontal and vertical dominoes, having, respectively, 1 and 2 rows.
