EXAMPLE

See illustration for a(4)=22: each of the 12 solutions shown crosses the x-axis first, and ten of them are related by mirror symmetry to a corresponding curve that crosses the y-axis first, making the total a(4)=22.

NAME

Meandric numbers for a curve crossing two perpendicular lines at n points.

DATA

1, 2, 4, 10, 22, 62, 146, 416

OFFSET

0,2

COMMENTS

a(n) = number of ways that a curve can start in the (-,-) quadrant, cross the x and y axes at exactly n points and end in any quadrant. Line is undirected.

LINKS

FORMULA

For n odd a(n) = 2*A076906(n).

EXAMPLE

See illustration for a(4)=22: each of the 12 solutions shown crosses the x-axis first, and ten of them are related by mirror symmetry to a corresponding curve that crosses the y-axis first, making the total a(4)=22.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A005316, A076876, A076906, A076907 (directed case).
