%N Number of weak excedances (parts on or above the diagonal) of the n-th composition in standard order.

%C The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions. See also A000120, A059893, A070939, A114994, A225620.

%e The 169th composition in standard order is (2,2,3,1), with weak excedances {1,2,3}, so a(169) = 3.
