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.

A299474 a(n) = 4*p(n), where p(n) is the number of partitions of n.

For n >= 1, a(n) is also the number of edges in the diagram of partitions of n, in which A299475(n) is the number of vertices and A000041(n) is the number of regions (see example and Euler's formula).

Examples

			Construction of a modular table of partitions in which a(n) is the number of edges of the diagram after n-th stage (n = 1..6):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apart from the axis x, the r-th horizontal line segment has length A141285(r), equaling the largest part of the r-th region of the diagram.
Apart from the axis y, the r-th vertical line segment has length A194446(r), equaling the number of parts in the r-th region of the diagram.
The total number of parts equals the sum of largest parts.
Note that every diagram contains all previous diagrams.
An infinite diagram is a table of all partitions of all positive integers.

Formula

a(n) = 4*A000041(n) = 2*A139582(n).
a(n) = A000041(n) + A299475(n) - 1, n >= 1 (Euler's formula).
a(n) = A000041(n) + A299473(n). - Omar E. Pol, Aug 11 2018
