Counts contiguously substituted cycloalkane polyols (CSCPs).

Consider a bracelet of n beads, each colored blue on one side and red on the other -- each bead changes color when the bracelet is turned over. Reversal is then the same as swapping the colors. a(n) is the number of colorings that are invariant under reversal, up to rotation and turning over. - Ed Wynn, May 22 2021

Examples

			The a(7) = 8 bracelets are rrrrrrr, rrrrrrb, rrrrrbb, rrrrbbb, rrrrbrb, rrrbrrb, rrbbrrb, rrbrbrb. - _Ed Wynn_, May 22 2021
a(12) = A056503(12) + 1. The extra bracelet is rrrbrrbbbrbb. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Jun 25 2021
