Number of UUU's in all skew Dyck paths of semilength n. A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down), and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of a path is defined to be the number of its steps. |

FORMULA
|
G.f.=(2zg-g+1-z+z^2)/(2zg+z-1), where g=1+zg^2+z(g-1)=[1-z-sqrt(1-6z+5z^2)]/(2z).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(3)=4 because each of the paths UUUDDD, UUUDLD, UUUDDL, and UUUDLL contains one UUU, while the other six paths of semilength 3 contain no UUU's.

MAPLE
