Comments

Also number of partitions of n in which each part, with the possible exception of the largest, occurs at least 8 times.

Examples

			a(9) = 3: [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1], [3,3,3], [9].
a(10) = 5: [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1], [2,2,2,2,2], [5,5], [1,9], [10].
a(11) = 4: [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1], [1,1,9], [1,10], [11].

G.f.: 1 + Sum_{j>=1} x^j/(1-x^j) * Product_{i=1..j-1} (1+x^(8*i)/(1-x^i)).
