Comments

The leaders of strictly increasing runs in a sequence are obtained by splitting it into maximal strictly increasing subsequences and taking the first term of each.

Also the number of ways to choose a strict integer partition of each part of an integer composition of n (A304969) such that the minima are strictly decreasing.

Examples

			The a(0) = 1 through a(9) = 16 compositions:
  ()  (1)  (2)  (3)   (4)   (5)    (6)    (7)    (8)     (9)
