With offset = 4: a(n) is the number of equivalence classes of compositions (summands >=1) of n into exactly 4 parts where two compositions a,b are considered equivalent if the summands of a can be permuted into the summands of b with an even number of transpositions. For example, let the class representatives be the last such composition in lexicographic order. a(10)=10 because we have the following nine partitions of 10 into 4 parts, {7,1,1,1}, {6,2,1,1}, {5,3,1,1}, {5,2,2,1}, {4,4,1,1}, {4,3,2,1}, {4,2,2,2},{3,3,3,1}, {3,3,2,2} and the class represented by {3,4,2,1}. - Geoffrey Critzer, Oct 16 2012
