%N Number of different ways angles from Pi/n to (n-1)Pi/n can tile around a vertex, where rotations of an angle sequence are not counted, but reflections that are different are counted.

%C The sequence represents the number of ways rhombi (with appropriate angles) can tile around a vertex, e.g. a(5) is the number of ways Penrose rhombs can tile a vertex where tilings that are different by rotation are counted and tilings that are the same by reflection are also counted.

%C Also, the number of nonequivalent compositions of 2*n with maximum part size n-1 up to rotation. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Sep 06 2017

%F From _Andrew Howroyd_, Sep 06 2017: (Start)

%F a(n) = A008965(2*n) - 2^n.

%F a(n) = (Sum_{d | 2*n} phi(2*n/d) * 2^d)/(2*n) - 1 - 2^n.

%F (End)

%e a(4)=19 because 2pi = 3'3'2' or 2'2'2'2' or 3'1'2'2' or 3'1'3'1' or 3'2'1'2' or 3'2'2'1' or 3'3'1'1' or 2'2'1'2'1' or 2'2'2'1'1' or 3'1'1'1'2' or 3'1'1'2'1' or 3'1'2'1'1' or 3'2'1'1'1' or 2'1'1'2'1'1' or 2'1'2'1'1'1' or 2'2'1'1'1'1' or 3'1'1'1'1'1' or 2'1'1'1'1'1'1' or 1'1'1'1'1'1'1'1' where k' = k pi/4.
