COMMENTS
As the order of addition doesn't matter we can assume terms are in increasing order. - David A. Corneth, Aug 01 2020
2408 is the largest among only 208 positive integers not in this sequence: cf. formula. - M. F. Hasler, Aug 23 2020
FORMULA
a(n) = n + 208 for all n > 2200. - M. F. Hasler, Aug 23 2020
EXAMPLE
From M. F. Hasler, Aug 23 2020: (Start)
The first few terms are multiples of 7 because of the coincidence that 2^3 - 1^3 = 7, equal to the number of cubes we consider here:
7 = 1^3 * 7 is the smallest sum of seven positive cubes.
14 = 1^3 * 6 + 2^3 = 6 + 8 is the next larger sum of seven positive cubes.
21 = 1^3 * 5 + 2^3 * 2 = 5 + 16 is the next larger sum of seven positive cubes.
28 = 1^3 * 4 + 2^3 * 3 = 4 + 24 is the next larger sum of seven positive cubes.
There are three more terms of this form, but the next larger sum of seven positive cubes is a(5) = 3^3 + 6 * 1^3 = 33. (End)

2070 is in the sequence as 2070 = 4^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 5^3 + 8^3 + 8^3 + 9^3.
2383 is in the sequence as 2383 = 3^3 + 5^3 + 5^3 + 6^3 + 6^3 + 7^3 + 11^3.
3592 is in the sequence as 3592 = 4^3 + 5^3 + 6^3 + 9^3 + 9^3 + 9^3 + 10^3. (End)
