cp's OEIS Frontend

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.

Least number of perfect powers (A001597) needed to add up to n.
This sequence is close to but not exactly equal to A063274.
a(n) is at most 4 since any number can be written as a sum of 4 squares (Lagrange's theorem), but it is possible that for a sufficiently large n, a(n) < 4.
a(n) <= a(i) + a(n-i) for 1 <= i <= n-1. (for computational ease, the maximum value for i can be chosen as floor(n/2)). a(1991) = 4. for 1992 <= k <= 20000, there is no k such that a(k) = 4. - David A. Corneth, Jun 24 2016 [Next such k is 25887, see A113505. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 25 2016]

Examples

			a(31) = 2 since 31 can be written as the sum of two (31 = 3^3 + 2^2 = 27 + 4) but no fewer than two perfect powers.

Nontrivial prime powers: A025475 except 1.

Examples

			26 = 9 + 9 + 8, three summands, so a(26) = 3.

It is conjectured that a(n) <= 5.

Examples

			a(6) = 1 because 6 is already nonprime squarefree number.
a(7) = 2 because 7 = 6 + 1 is a partition of 7 into 2 nonprime squarefree parts and there is no such partition with fewer terms.

a(n) <= 4 since any number can be written as a sum of 4 squares (Lagrange's theorem).
Sequence first differs from A063274, A225926 and A274459 at n = 32 since 32 is a powerful number, a prime power and a perfect power but neither a square nor a cube.

Examples

			a(1) = 1, a(4) = 1 (4 = 2^2), a(7) = 4 (7 = 2^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2), a(8) = 1 (8 = 2^3), a(12) = 2 (12 = 2^3 + 2^2), a(17) = 2 (17 = 4^2 + 1^2), a(32) = 2 (32 = 4^2 + 4^2).
