COMMENTS

When is next nonzero value, for n>11?

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 0 because for instance, first row = 3rd row = (1,2,2).

a(6) = 0 because for instance, 3rd column = 6th column = (2,2,2,2,2,2).

a(7) = 0 because for instance, first column = 4th column.

a(9) = 0 because for instance, 9th column = 2 * 4th column.
