Comments

A free pure achiral multifunction (with empty expressions allowed) (AME) is either (case 1) the leaf symbol "o", or (case 2) a possibly empty expression of the form h[g, ..., g] where h and g are AMEs. The number of positions in an AME is the number of brackets [...] plus the number of o's.

Also the number of achiral Mathematica expressions with one atom and n positions.

Examples

			The a(5) = 12 AMEs:
  o[o[o]]
  o[o][o]
  o[o[][]]
  o[o,o,o]
  o[][o[]]
  o[][o,o]
  o[][][o]
  o[o[]][]
  o[o,o][]
  o[][o][]
  o[o][][]
  o[][][][]
