A151945 Denomination sequence. Start with the 0th and first coins of value 1 cent: a(0)=a(1)=1. Thereafter a(n), the value of the n-th coin (n>=2), is the number of ways to make change for n cents in earlier coins. The two one-cent coins are considered distinct. 7

%C a(n) is the number of nonnegative solutions to the Diophantine equation 1*x_0 + 1*x_1 + ... + a(n-1)*x_(n-1) = n. - _Melvin Peralta_, Jan 03 2016

%e Call the two one-cent coins c and d.

%e Then we can make change for 2 cents in three ways: cc,cd,dd, so a(2) = 3.

%e Then we can make change for 3 cents in five ways: ccc,ccd,cdd,ddd,3, so a(3) = 5.
