Comments

a(n) is zero when n choose 2 is odd, that is for numbers that have remainders 2 or 3 when divided by 4.

Examples

			Consider a permutation 1432. It has exactly three pairs of numbers, the first of them is 1, that are in increasing order. The other three pairs are in decreasing order. The other 5 permutations of size 4 with this property are 2341, 2413, 3142, 3214, 4123. Thus a(4) = 6.
