FORMULA

a(n) = (3/2)*(1 - (-1)^n) = 3*(n mod 2). - Paolo P. Lava, Oct 20 2006

a(n) = A010698(n)/2 - 1. - Martin Ettl, Nov 11 2012

a(n) = 2^(1 - (-1)^n) - 1. - Bruno Berselli, Dec 29 2015

From Chai Wah Wu, Jun 04 2016: (Start)

a(n) = a(n-2) for n >= 2.

G.f.: 3*x/(1 - x^2). (End)

E.g.f.: 3*sinh(x). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jun 04 2016
