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.

A304969 Expansion of 1/(1 - Sum_{k>=1} q(k)*x^k), where q(k) = number of partitions of k into distinct parts (A000009).

Invert transform of A000009.
From Gus Wiseman, Jul 31 2022: (Start)
Also the number of ways to choose a multiset partition into distinct constant multisets of a multiset of length n that covers an initial interval of positive integers. This interpretation involves only multisets, not sequences. For example, the a(1) = 1 through a(4) = 11 multiset partitions are:
{{1}} {{1,1}} {{1,1,1}} {{1,1,1,1}}
{{1},{2}} {{1},{1,1}} {{1},{1,1,1}}
{{1},{2,2}} {{1,1},{2,2}}
{{2},{1,1}} {{1},{2,2,2}}
{{1},{2},{3}} {{2},{1,1,1}}
{{1},{2},{1,1}}
{{1},{2},{2,2}}
{{1},{2},{3,3}}
{{1},{3},{2,2}}
{{2},{3},{1,1}}
{{1},{2},{3},{4}}
The non-strict version is A055887.
The strongly normal non-strict version is A063834.
The strongly normal version is A270995.

Examples

			From _Gus Wiseman_, Jul 31 2022: (Start)
a(n) is the number of ways to choose a strict integer partition of each part of an integer composition of n. The a(1) = 1 through a(4) = 11 choices are:
  ((1))  ((2))     ((3))        ((4))
         ((1)(1))  ((21))       ((31))
                   ((1)(2))     ((1)(3))
                   ((2)(1))     ((2)(2))
                   ((1)(1)(1))  ((3)(1))
                                ((1)(21))
                                ((21)(1))
                                ((1)(1)(2))
                                ((1)(2)(1))
                                ((2)(1)(1))
                                ((1)(1)(1)(1))
