Comments

a(n) counts the partitions of {1...n} with the property that all elements of the partition are congruent, modulo translation and reflection, to the same tile.
Two tilings that are reflections of each other are considered distinct. E.g. {{1,2,6},{3,7,8},{4,5,9}} and {{1,5,6},{2,3,7},{4,8,9}} are both included in the count for a(9). The first tile that allows more than one tiling for the same set without one being a reflection of the other is {1,2,7} on the span {1...12}.

Examples

			a(8)=13 because the following are the 13 tilings of {1...8}:
{{1},{2},{3},{4},{5},{6},{7},{8}} tile: {1}
{{1,2},{3,4},{5,6},{7,8}} tile: {1,2}
{{1,3},{2,4},{5,7},{6,8}} tile: {1,3}
{{1,5},{2,6},{3,7},{4,8}} tile: {1,5}
{{1,2,3,4},{5,6,7,8}} tile: {1,2,3,4}
{{1,2,3,5},{4,6,7,8}} tile: {1,2,3,5}
{{1,5,6,7},{2,3,4,8}} tile: {1,2,3,7}
{{1,2,4,6},{3,5,7,8}} tile: {1,2,4,6}
{{1,4,6,7},{2,3,5,8}} tile: {1,2,4,7}
{{1,2,5,6},{3,4,7,8}} tile: {1,2,5,6}
{{1,3,4,7},{2,5,6,8}} tile: {1,3,4,7}
{{1,3,5,7},{2,4,6,8}} tile: {1,3,5,7}
{{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}} tile: {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}
