(A composition of n with m parts is an ordered list of m positive integers that sum to n. The number of compositions of n into m parts is given by the binomial coefficient C(n - 1, m - 1).) [_Joel B. Lewis_, May 07 2009] %F A159297 a(n) = sum(C(n - 1, ijk - 1)) where the sum is over all triples (i, j, k) such that 0 < i, j, k and ijk <= n. [_Joel B. Lewis_, May 07 2009] %e A159297 For n=3, the 10 possible matrices are: 3 (1*1*1); (1,2) as three different vectors (1*1*2, 1*2*1, 2*1*1); (2,1) as three different vectors (1*1*2, 1*2*1, 2*1*1); and (1,1,1) as three different vectors (1*1*3, 1*3*1, 3*1*1).
