A086449 a(0) = 1, a(2n+1) = a(n), a(2n) = a(n) + a(n-1) + ... + a(n-2^m) + ... where a(n) = 0 for n < 0. 5

%C Conjecture: all a(n) are even except a(2^k-1) = 1. Also a(2^k-2) = 2^(k-1). [For proof see link.]

%C Setting m=0 gives Stern-Brocot sequence (A002487).

%C a(n) is the number of ways of writing n as a sum of powers of 2, where each power appears p times, with p itself a power of 2.

%e From _Peter Luschny_, Sep 01 2019: (Start)

%e The sequence splits into rows of length 2^k:

%e 1

%e 1, 2

%e 1, 4, 2, 4

%e 1, 8, 4, 8, 2, 12, 4, 8

%e 1, 18, 8, 16, 4, 26, 8, 16, 2, 34, 12, 24, 4, 36, 8, 16

%e .

%e The first few partitions counted are (compare with the list in A174980):

%e [ 0] [[]]
