For n >= 1, A299474(n) is the number of edges and A000041(n) is the number of regions in the mentioned diagram (see example and Euler's formula).
LINKS
FORMULA
a(0) = 1; a(n) = 1 + 3*A000041(n), n >= 1.
a(n) = A299474(n) - A000041(n) + 1, n >= 1 (Euler's formula).
EXAMPLE
Construction of a modular table of partitions in which a(n) is the number of vertices of the diagram after n-th stage (n = 1..6):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
n ........: 1 2 3 4 5 6 (stage)
a(n)......: 4 7 10 16 22 34 (vertices)
A299474(n): 4 8 12 20 28 44 (edges)
A000041(n): 1 2 3 5 7 11 (regions)

Apart from the axis x, the r-th horizontal line segment has length A141285(r), equaling the largest part of the r-th region of the diagram.
Apart from the axis y, the r-th vertical line segment has length A194446(r), equaling the number of parts in the r-th region of the diagram.
The total number of parts equals the sum of largest parts.
Note that every diagram contains all previous diagrams.
An infinite diagram is a table of all partitions of all positive integers.
