This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Extensive calculations show that if a(n) >= 0, then every number greater than a(n) can be represented as the sum of three n-gonal numbers. a(3)=0 because every number can be written as the sum of three triangular numbers. When n is a multiple of 4, there is an infinite set of numbers not representable. For n=14, there appears to be a sparse, but infinite, set of numbers not representable.

Number of ways to write n as an ordered sum of 7 heptagonal numbers (A000566).
a(n) > 0 for all n >= 0.
Every number is the sum of at most 7 heptagonal numbers.
Every number is the sum of at most k k-gonal numbers (Fermat's polygonal number theorem).
