Comments

The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.

We define a (normal) pattern to be a finite sequence covering an initial interval of positive integers. Patterns are counted by A000670 and ranked by A333217. A sequence S is said to match a pattern P if there is a not necessarily contiguous subsequence of S whose parts have the same relative order as P. For example, (3,1,1,3) matches (1,1,2), (2,1,1), and (2,1,2), but avoids (1,2,1), (1,2,2), and (2,2,1).

Examples

			The a(n) patterns for n = 32, 80, 133, 290, 305, 329, 436 are:
      (1)  (1)   (1)    (1)    (1)     (1)     (1)
           (12)  (21)   (12)   (12)    (11)    (12)
                 (321)  (21)   (21)    (12)    (21)
                        (231)  (121)   (21)    (121)
                               (213)   (122)   (123)
                               (2131)  (221)   (212)
                                       (2331)  (1212)
                                               (2123)
                                               (12123)
