A014486 List of totally balanced sequences of 2n binary digits written in base 10. Binary expansion of each term contains n 0's and n 1's and reading from left to right (the most significant to the least significant bit), the number of 0's never exceeds the number of 1's.

The binary Dyck-Language (A063171) in decimal representation.
These encode width 2n mountain ranges, rooted planar trees of n+1 vertices and n edges, planar planted trees with n nodes, rooted plane binary trees with n+1 leaves (2n edges, 2n+1 vertices, n internal nodes, the root included), Dyck words, binary bracketings, parenthesizations, non-crossing handshakes and partitions and many other combinatorial structures in Catalan family, enumerated by A000108.
Is Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) / n^(5/2) bounded? - Benoit Cloitre, Aug 18 2002
This list is the intersection of A061854 and A031443. - Jason Kimberley, Jan 18 2013
The sequence does start at n = 0, since in the binary interpretation of the Dyck language (e.g., as parenthesizations where "1" stands for "(" and "0" stands for ")") having a(0) = 0 will do since it would stand for the empty string where the "0"s and "1"s are balanced (hence the parentheses are balanced). - Daniel Forgues, Feb 17 2013
It appears that for n>=1 this sequence can be obtained by concatenating the terms of the irregular array whose n-th row length is A000108(n) and that is defined recursively by B(n,0) = A020988(n) and B(n,k) = B(n, k-1) + D(n, k-1) where D(x,y) = (2^(2*(A089309(B(x,y))-1))-1)*(2/3) + 2^A007814(B(x,y)). - Raúl Mario Torres Silva and Michel Marcus, May 01 2020
This encoding is related to the ranking by standard ordered tree numbers in that (1) the binary encoding of trees ordered by standard ranking is given by A358505, while (2) the standard ranking of trees ordered by binary encoding is given by A358523. - Gus Wiseman, Nov 21 2022

			a(19) = 226_10 = 11100010_2 = A063171(19) as bracket expression: ( ( ( ) ) )( ) and as a binary tree, proceeding from left to right in depth-first fashion, with 1's in binary expansion standing for internal (branching) nodes and 0's for leaves:
  0   0
   \ /
    1   0 0  (0)
     \ /   \ /
      1     1
       \   /
         1
Note that in this coding scheme the last leaf of the binary trees (here in parentheses) is implicit. This tree can be also converted to a particular S-expression in languages like Lisp, Scheme and Prolog, if we interpret its internal nodes (1's) as cons cells with each leftward leaning branch being the "car" and the rightward leaning branch the "cdr" part of the pair, with the terminal nodes (0's) being ()'s (NILs). Thus we have (cons (cons (cons () ()) ()) (cons () ())) = '( ( ( () . () ) . () ) . ( () . () ) ) = (((())) ()) i.e., the same bracket expression as above, but surrounded by extra parentheses. This mapping is performed by the Scheme function A014486->parenthesization given below.
From _Gus Wiseman_, Nov 21 2022: (Start)
The terms and corresponding ordered rooted trees begin:
    0: o
    2: (o)
   10: (oo)
   12: ((o))
   42: (ooo)
   44: (o(o))
   50: ((o)o)
   52: ((oo))
   56: (((o)))
  170: (oooo)
  172: (oo(o))
  178: (o(o)o)
  180: (o(oo))
  184: (o((o)))
