%N Number of integer solutions to the equation 2x^2+y^2+8z^2=m for an odd number m=2n-1.
%C Related to primitive congruent numbers A006991.
%C Assuming the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, the odd number 2n-1 is a congruent number if it is squarefree and a(n) = 2*A072069(n).
%C Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
