FORMULA
a(n) ~ GAMMA(2/3) * 2^(2*n-1/3) * 3^(2*n+5/6) * n^(n-1/6) / (exp(n+Pi^2/72) * Pi^(2*n+7/6)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 06 2014
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 4*x^2 + 34*x^3 + 410*x^4 + 6455*x^5 + 125251*x^6 +...
such that, by definition,
A(x) = 1 + ((1+x)-1) + ((1+x)-1)*((1+x)^4-1) + ((1+x)-1)*((1+x)^4-1)*((1+x)^7-1) + ((1+x)-1)*((1+x)^4-1)*((1+x)^7-1)*((1+x)^10-1) +...
