Summary: We give a systematic view of the asymptotic expansion of two well-known sequences, the central binomial coefficients and the Catalan numbers. The main point is explanation of the nature of the best shift in variable $n$, in order to obtain "nice" asymptotic expansions. We also give a complete asymptotic expansion of partial sums of these sequences.
