Compare to: exp( Sum_{n>=1} x^n/(1+x^n)/n ) = Sum_{n>=0} x^(n*(n+1)/2).
FORMULA
G.f.: -1 + 2/(1+x - 2*x/(1+x^2 - 2*x^2/(1+x^3 - 2*x^3/(1+x^4 - 2*x^4/(1+x^5 - 2*x^5/(1+x^6 - 2*x^6/(1+x^7 - 2*x^7/(1+x^8 - 2*x^8/(...))))))))), a continued fraction.
G.f.: A(x) = (1 + x*B(x))/(1 - x*B(x)), where B(x) = (1 + x^2*C(x))/(1 - x^2*C(x)), C(x) = (1 + x^3*D(x))/(1 - x^3*D(x)), D(x) = (1 + x^4*E(x))/(1 - x^4*E(x)), ... - Paul D. Hanna, Jun 14 2015
