%N Number of sensed 2-connected (nonseparable) planar maps with n edges.

%C Some people begin this 2,1,2,3,6,..., others begin it 0,1,2,3,6,....

%C The dual of a nonseparable map is nonseparable, so the class of all nonseparable planar maps is self-dual. The maps considered here are unrooted and sensed and may include loops and parallel edges. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Mar 29 2021
