%N A000672 Number of 3-valent trees (= boron trees or binary trees) with n nodes.
%C A000672 This can be described in 2 ways: (a) Trees with n nodes of valency <= 3, for n = 0,1,2,3,... (b) Trees with t = 2n+2 nodes of valency either 1 or 3 (implying that there are n nodes of valency 3 - the boron atoms - and n+2 nodes of valency 1 - the hydrogen atoms), for t = 2,4,6,8,...
%C A000672 Essentially the same sequences arises from studying the number of unrooted, unlabeled binary tree topologies with n leaves (see A129860). - _Steven Kelk_, Jul 22 2016
