FORMULA
Euler transform of period 16 sequence [ 1, -1, -1, 1, -1, 0, 1, -2, 1, 0, -1, 1, -1, -1, 1, -1, ...].
G.f.: Sum_{k>=0} (-1)^floor((k + 2) / 4) * x^(k * (k+1) / 2).
a(n) = (-1)^n * A143433(n).
EXAMPLE
1 + x - x^3 - x^6 - x^10 - x^15 + x^21 + x^28 + x^36 + x^45 - x^55 - x^66 + ...
q + q^9 - q^25 - q^49 - q^81 - q^121 + q^169 + q^225 + q^289 + q^361 + ...
MATHEMATICA
a[ n_] := If[ n < 0, 0, SeriesCoefficient[ (Series[ EllipticTheta[ 3, Log[y] / (2 I), I x^2], {x, 0, n + Floor@Sqrt[n]}] // Normal // TrigToExp) /. {y -> I x}, {x, 0, n}]]
PROG
(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, if( issquare( 8*n + 1, &n), n = n\2; (-1)^((n + 2) \ 4), 0))}
