Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).

Dickson writes that Liouville proved several related results about sums of triangular number. In particular, that every nonnegative integer is the sum of t1 + t2 + 4*t3 where t1, t2, t3 are trianglular numbers. - Michael Somos, Feb 10 2020

Examples

			G.f. = 1 + 2*x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + 3*x^4 + 2*x^5 + 4*x^6 + 4*x^7 + 2*x^8 + 2*x^9 + ...
G.f. = q^3 + 2*q^7 + q^11 + 2*q^15 + 3*q^19 + 2*q^23 + 4*q^27 + 4*q^31 + 2*q^35 + ...
