Also number of 3's in all partitions of n that do not contain 1 as a part.
Also 0 together with the first differences of A024787. - Omar E. Pol, Nov 13 2011
a(n) is the number of partitions of n having fewer 1s than 2s; e.g., a(7) counts these 3 partitions: [5, 2], [3, 2, 2], [2, 2, 2, 1]. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 31 2014
The last section of the set of partitions of n is also the n-th section of the set of partitions of any integer >= n. - Omar E. Pol, Apr 07 2014

Examples

			a(7) = 2 counts the 3's in 7 = 4+3 = 3+2+2. The 3's in 7 = 3+3+1 = 3+2+1+1 = 3+1+1+1+1 do not count.

In the last section of the set of partitions of 7 the difference between the sum of the third column and the sum of the fourth column is 5 - 3 = 2 equaling the number of 3's, so a(7) = 2 (see also A024787).
