Number of partitions of 0 of the form [x(1)+x(2)+...+x (j)] - [y(1)+y(2)+...+y(k)] where the x(i) are distinct positive integers <=n and the y(i) are distinct positive integers <= n.

%N Number of partitions of 0 of the form [x(1)+x(2)+...+x (j)] - [y(1)+y(2)+...+y(k)] where the x(i) are distinct positive integers <=n and the y(i) are distinct positive integers <= n.

%F Let q (h) be the number of partitions of h>=1 into distinct parts, as in A000009. There are q(h)^2 ways to choose the sets {x(1),...,x(j)} and {y(1),...,y(k)} each having sum h. Consequently, there are q(1)^2 + q(2)^2 + ... + q(n)^2 partitions of 0 as described in the Name section.

%e 0 = 1-1 = 2-2 = 3-3 = 3-(1+2) = (1+2)-3 = (1+2)-(1+2),

%e so that a(3) = 6.
