COMMENTS
| a(0) = 1 since the only partition of 0 is the empty partition. The product of its terms is the empty product, namely 1.
Same parity as A000009. - Jon Perry (perry(AT)globalnet.co.uk), Feb 12 2004

FORMULA
| The limit of a(n+3)/a(n) is 3. However, the limit of a(n+1)/a(n) does not exist. In fact, the sequence {a(n+1)/a(n)} has three limit points, which are about 1.4422447, 1.4422491 and 1.4422549. - Dean Hickerson (dean.hickerson(AT)yahoo.com), Aug 19 2007. See the link below.
a(n) ~ c(n mod 3) 3^(n/3), where c(0)=97923.26765718877..., c(1)=97922.93936857030... and c(2)=97922.90546334208... - Dean Hickerson (dean.hickerson(AT)yahoo.com), Aug 19 2007
G.f.: 1 / Product (1-k*x^k).
G.f.: 1 + sum(n>=1, n*x^n / prod(k=1..n, 1-k*x^k) ) = 1 + sum(n>=1, n*x^n / prod(k>=n, 1-k*x^k) ). [Joerg Arndt, Mar 23 2011]
a(n) = (1/n)*Sum_{k=1..n} A078308(k)*a(n-k). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Nov 22 2002

EXAMPLE
| Partitions of 0 are {()} whose products are {1} whose sum is 1
Partitions of 1 are {(1)} whose products are {1} whose sum is 1
Partitions of 2 are {(2),(1,1)} whose products are {2,1} whose sum is 3
Partitions of 3 are 3 => {(3),(2,1),(1,1,1)} whose products are {3,2,1} whose sum is 6
Partitions of 4 are {(4),(3,1),(2,2),(2,1,1),(1,1,1,1)} whose products are {4,3,4,2,1} whose sum is 14
