%N Number of compositions (ordered partitions) of n where no pair of adjacent part sizes is relatively prime.

%C A178472(n) is a lower bound for a(n). This bound is exact for n = 2..10 and 12, but falls behind thereafter.

%C a(0) = 1 vacuously for the empty composition. One could take a(1) = 0, on the theory that each composition is followed by infinitely many 0's, and thus the 1 is not relatively prime to its neighbor; but this definition seems simpler.
