%N Number of partitions of n into positive summands in arithmetic progression with common difference 3.

%C This sequence gives the number of ways to write n as n = a + a+3 + ... + a+3r = (r+1)(2a+3r)/2, with a and r integers > 0.

%F a(n) = d1(n) - 1 - f(n) with d1(n) = number of odd divisors of n (A001227) and f(n) = the number of those odd divisors d of n such that d > 1 and d(1+d/3)/2 <= n <= 3d(d-1)/2. f(n) is in A243224.

%e a(15) = 2 because 15 = 6 + 9 = 2 + 5 + 8.

%Y Cf. A072670 (same with common differences = 2).

%Y A243225 gives the integers n that are not such sums for which a(n) = 0.
