%N A097971 Number of alternating runs in all permutations of [n] (the permutation 732569148 has four alternating runs: 732, 2569, 91 and 148).
%C A097971 a(n) is also equal to the sum over all permutations p in S(n) of the number of elements in the set {(i, j): 0 < i < j < n+1 and |i - j| = |p(i) - p(j)|}.

%F A097971 a(n) = n!(2n-1)/3. E.g.f.: x^2*(3-x)/[3(1-x)^2]. a(n) = 2*A006157(n).
%e A097971 a(3) = 10 because the permutations 123, 132, 312, 213, 231, 321 have the following alternating runs: 123, 13, 32, 31, 12, 21, 13, 23, 31 and 321.
