Two color patterns are equivalent if we permute the colors. Chiral color patterns must not be equivalent if we reverse the order of the pattern.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = (S2(n,k) - A(n,k))/2, where k=6 is the number of colors (sets), S2 is the Stirling subset number A008277 and A(n,k) = [n>1] * (k*A(n-2,k) + A(n-2,k-1) + A(n-2,k-2)) + [n<2 & n==k & n>=0].
G.f.: (x^6 / (Product_{k=1..6} (1 - k*x)) - x^6 *(1+x)*(1-4*x^2)*(1+2*x-x^2-4*x^3) / Product_{k=1..6} (1 - k*x^2)) / 2.

EXAMPLE

For a(7)=9, the chiral pairs are AABCDEF-ABCDEFF, ABACDEF-ABCDEFE, ABCADEF-ABCDEFD, ABCDAEF-ABCDEFC, ABCDEAF-ABCDEFB, ABBCDEF-ABCDEEF, ABCBDEF-ABCDEDF, ABCDBEF-ABCDECF, and ABCCDEF-ABCDDEF.
