Comments

Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n. Also, for any ordered pair (k,m) among (5,7), (5,9), (5,13), (6,5), (6,7), (7,5), each nonnegative integer n can be written as the sum of a k-gonal number, a second k-gonal number and a generalized m-gonal number.

Examples

			a(33) = 1 since 33 = 0*(3*0-1)/2 + 4*(3*4+1)/2 + 1*(4*1+3).
a(56) = 1 since 56 = 4*(3*4-1)/2 + 2*(3*2+1)/2 + 3*(4*3+3).
