In the diagram of the top view of the pyramid described in A244050 consider a 90-degree sector on two successive octants of two quadrants. The area of the top triangle is equal to 1 and the sum of the areas of all parts (or regions) added at n-th stage equals sigma(n), the sum of the divisors of n.
a(n) is also the number of terraces at n-th level (starting from the top) in the mentioned sector of the pyramid.
