%N Number of partitions of floor(5n/2)-1 into n nonnegative integers each no more than 5.

%C In Cayley's terminology, this is the number of literal terms of degree n and of weight floor(5n/2)-1 involving the letters a, b, c, d, e, f, having weights 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 respectively. - Herman Jamke (hermanjamke(AT)fastmail.fm), Feb 17 2008
