%F Working with an offset of 2, it appears that the o.g.f is equal to the Lambert series sum {n >= 2} A072031(n-1)*x^n/(1 - x^n). - _Peter Bala_, Dec 09 2014

%e a(4) = d(1)*d(4) + d(2)*d(3) + d(3)*d(2) + d(4)*d(1) = 1*3 +2*2 +2*2 +3*1 = 14.

%e 3 = 1*1+2*1 in 4 ways, so a(2)=4; 4 = 1*1+1*3 (4 ways) = 2*1+2*1 (4 ways), so a(3)=8; 5 = 4*1+1*1 (4 ways) = 2*2+1*1 (2 ways) + 3*1+2*1 (8 ways), so a(4) = 14. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 07 2012
