Number of partitions of n into parts 1, 2, 5, and 10.
There is a unique solution to this puzzle: "There are a prime number of ways that I can make change for n cents using coins of 1, 2, 5, 10 cents; but a semiprime number of ways that I can make change for n-1 cents and for n+1 cents." There is a unique solution to this related puzzle: "There are a prime number of ways that I can make change for n cents using coins of 1, 2, 5, 10 cents; but a 3-almost prime number of ways that I can make change for n-1 cents and for n+1 cents." - Jonathan Vos Post, Aug 26 2005
