COMMENTS
Also sum of all odd-indexed parts minus the sum of all even-indexed parts of all partitions of n (Cf. A206563). - Omar E. Pol, Feb 12 2012
Column 1 of A206563. - Omar E. Pol, Feb 15 2012
Suppose that p=[p(1),p(2),p(3),...] is a partition of n with parts in nonincreasing order. Let f(p) = p(1) - p(2) + p(3) - ... be the alternating sum of parts of p and let F(n) = sum of alternating sums of all partitions of n. Conjecture: F(n) = A066897(n) for n >= 1. - Clark Kimberling, May 17 2019
From Omar E. Pol, Apr 02 2023: (Start)
Convolution of A000041 and A001227.
Convolution of A002865 and A060831.
a(n) is also the total number of odd divisors of all positive integers in a sequence with n blocks where the m-th block consists of A000041(n-m) copies of m, with 1 <= m <= n. The mentioned odd divisors are also all odd parts of all partitions of n. (End)

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} b(k)*numbpart(n-k), where b(k)=A001227(k)=number of odd divisors of k and numbpart() is A000041. - Vladeta Jovovic, Jan 26 2002
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} k*A103919(n,k). - Emeric Deutsch, Mar 13 2006
G.f.: Sum_{j>=1}(x^(2j-1)/(1-x^(2j-1)))/Product_{j>=1}(1-x^j). - Emeric Deutsch, Mar 13 2006
a(n) = A066898(n) + A209423(n) = A006128(n) - A066898(n). [Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 09 2012]
a(n) = A207381(n) - A207382(n). - Omar E. Pol, Mar 11 2012
a(n) = (A006128(n) + A209423(n))/2. - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 25 2018
a(n) ~ exp(Pi*sqrt(2*n/3)) * (2*gamma + log(24*n/Pi^2)) / (8*Pi*sqrt(2*n)), where gamma is the Euler-Mascheroni constant A001620. - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 25 2018
EXAMPLE
a(4) = 8 because in the partitions of 4, namely [4],[3,1],[2,2],[2,1,1],[1,1,1,1], we have a total of 0+2+0+2+4=8 odd parts.
