Katalanische Nummer
"""
This implementation demonstrates how
to efficiently calculate the nth
Catalan number. For instance,
the nth catalan number gives the
number of unique binary search trees
which has exactly n nodes of unique values
between 1 and n.
Let us denote it by Cn:
C0 = 1 and Cn+1 = 2(2n+1)Cn/(n+2)

Time complexity: O(n)
Space complexity: O(1)

print("C1 =", C_n(1)) # C1 = 1
