Comments

The maximal square contained in the Young diagram of an integer partition is called its Durfee square, and its length is the rank of the partition.

The Heinz number of an integer partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k).

Examples

			The partition (3,3,2,1) has Heinz number 150 and diagram
  o o o
  o o o
  o o
  o
containing maximal square
  o o
  o o
and contained in minimal square
  o o o o
  o o o o
  o o o o
  o o o o
so a(150) = 4 - 2 = 2.
