A079798 Partition of positive integers into shortest possible groups, starting with (1), (2,3), (4,5,6), (7,8,9,10,11), such that a(n) = the sum of the terms of the n-th group is a multiple of a(n-1) and a(n) > a(n-1). 5

%N Partition of positive integers into shortest possible groups, starting with (1), (2,3), (4,5,6), (7,8,9,10,11), such that a(n) = the sum of the terms of the n-th group is a multiple of a(n-1) and a(n) > a(n-1).

%C Dropping requirement a(n) > a(n-1) leads to a different partition: (1), (2, 3), (4, 5, 6), (7, 8), ... - see A160275.

%C For partition starting with (1), (2), (3,4,5), see A075631.
