Formula

G.f.: 3/(1-x). - Bruno Berselli, Mar 15 2011

E.g.f.: 3*e^x. - Vincenzo Librandi, Jan 24 2012

a(n) = A040000(n) + A054977(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, May 06 2012

a(n) = 3*A000012(n). - Michel Marcus, Dec 18 2015

a(n) = floor(1/(n - cot(1/n))). - Clark Kimberling, Mar 10 2020

Equals Sum_{k>=1} (1/4)^k (as a constant). - Michel Marcus, Jun 11 2020

Equals Sum_{k>=2} (k-1)/binomial(2*k,k) (as a constant). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 05 2021

Equals Sum_{k>=1} (-1)^(k+1)/2^k. - Michal Paulovic, Mar 02 2023
