EXAMPLE
For n = 2 the a(2) = 13 means are (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3/2), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3/2), (3/2, 1), (3/2, 2), (3/2, 3/2), (4/3, 4/3), (4/3, 5/3), (5/3, 4/3), (5/3, 5/3).
They can be visualized as follows:
Mark the set of points with "x" in a 2 X 2 matrix:
(xx)
(xx)
The points not in a particular subset are replaced with "."
For example, the subset {(1,1),(1,2)}
(x.)
is represented by: (x.)
The means for n=2 arise from the following subsets:
(x.)
(1,1): (..)
-
(.x)
(2,1): (..)
-
(..)
(1,2): (x.)
-
(..)
(2,2): (.x)
-
(x.) (.x) (xx)
(3/2,3/2): (.x) or (x.) or (xx)
-
(xx)
(3/2,1): (..)

(3/2,2): (xx)

(1,3/2): (x.)
