Comments

In order to construct this sequence we use the following rules:

- Consider the partitions of positive integers.

- For each positive integer its shells must be arranged as the arms of a spiral.

- The sequence lists one spiral for each positive integer.

- If the integer j is odd then the first composition listed of each spiral is j.

- If the integer j is even then we use the same spiral of A211988.
