For polygons in general see A000939 and A000949, and especially the Golomb-Welch reference. - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 21 2013

Examples

			For n=5, only solution is the regular pentagram.
For n=6, only solution is the unicursal hexagram (see Wikipedia link).
For n=7, two regular heptagrams and three irregular forms are possible.

A signed permutation is a sequence (x_1,x_2,...,x_n) of integers such that {|x_1|,|x_2|,...|x_n|} = {1,2...,n}.
Adjacent elements that differ in sign will always differ by more than 1.

Examples

			In the following examples, the number of assignments of signs to each unsigned permutation is shown in parenthesis.
a(2) = 3: 123(1), 132(2). Total is 1 + 2 = 3.
a(3) = 17: 1234(1), 1243(2), 1324(4), 1342(4), 1423(4), 1432(2).

Achiral means that the polygon has an axis of reflective symmetry.
