Examples

			From _Petros Hadjicostas_, Sep 29 2019: (Start)
a(8) = 1 because we have only the following strictly increasing arithmetic progression of positive integers with at least 3 terms and sum <= 8: 1+2+3.
a(9) = 3 because we have the following strictly increasing arithmetic progressions of positive integers with at least 3 terms and sum <= 9: 1+2+3, 1+3+5, and 2+3+4.
a(10) = 4 because we have the following strictly increasing arithmetic progressions of positive integers with at least 3 terms and sum <= 10: 1+2+3, 1+3+5, 2+3+4, and 1+2+3+4.
