Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).

This is an example of the quintuple product identity in the form f(a*b^4, a^2/b) - (a/b) * f(a^4*b, b^2/a) = f(-a*b, -a^2*b^2) * f(-a/b, -b^2) / f(a, b) where a = x^5, b = x. - Michael Somos, Jul 12 2012

Number 11 of the 14 primitive eta-products which are holomorphic modular forms of weight 1/2 listed by D. Zagier on page 30 of "The 1-2-3 of Modular Forms". - Michael Somos, May 04 2016

Examples

			G.f. = 1 - q - q^4 + 2*q^9 - q^16 - q^25 + 2*q^36 - q^49 - q^64 + 2*q^81 + ...
