COMMENTS
Also equal to the number of overpartitions of n with no non-overlined parts larger than the number of overlined parts. For example, the overpartitions counted by a(4) = 6 are: [4'], [3',1], [3',1'], [2',1,1], [2',1',1], [1',1,1,1]. - Jeremy Lovejoy, Aug 23 2021

FORMULA
G.f.: Sum_{k>=0} x^((k^2+k)/2) / ((1 - x) * (1 - x^2) ... (1 - x^k))^2.
a(n) ~ exp(2*Pi*sqrt(n/5)) / (2^(3/2) * 5^(3/4) * n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 20 2020
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + q + 2*q^2 + 4*q^3 + 6*q^4 + 10*q^5 + 15*q^6 + 23*q^7 + 33*q^8 + ...
