EXAMPLE
The tree of tournament sequences of descendents of a node labeled (5) begins:
[5]; generation 1: 5->[6,7,8,9,10]; generation 2:
6->[7,8,9,10,11,12], 7->[8,9,10,11,12,13,14],
8->[9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16], 9->[10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18],
10->[11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]; ...
Then a(n) gives the number of nodes in generation n.
Also, a(n+1) = sum of labels of nodes in generation n.
