%N Pair(i,j): a folded version of the shell model of partitions (see comments for precise definition).

%C In the shell model of partitions (Cf. A135010, A138121) the n-th largest part has length = A141285(n). After the folding of the partitions the pair(i,j) shows the horizontal location of the n-th largest part at the level n of the structure (see example).
