%N Twice partition numbers.

%C Except for the first term the number of segments needed to draw (on the infinite square grid) a minimalist diagram of regions and partitions of n. Therefore A000041(n) is also the number of pairs of orthogonal segments (L-shaped) in the same diagram (See links section). For the definition of "regions of n" see A206437. - _Omar E.
