%N Number of 1's in all compositions of n into odd parts.

%C a(n+1) is the number of ways to tile a strip of length n+1 using white tiles of only odd lengths, with total length n, and one red square of length one. - _Gregory L. Simay_, Aug 14 2016

%C A029907, the number of compositions of n with exactly one even part, is equal to a(n+1-2) + a(n+1-4) + a(n+1-6) + ... - _Gregory L. Simay_, Aug 14 2016

%C Apart from the initial 0 and 1, this is the p-INVERT transform of (1,0,1,0,1,0,...) for p(S) = (1 - S)^2. See A291219. - _Clark Kimberling_, Sep 02 2017

%F For n >= 4, a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + A000045(n-2).

%F G.f.: x*(1 - x^2)^2/(1 - x - x^2)^2.

%e a(5) = 11 because in the compositions of 5 into odd parts there are a total of 11 1's: 5, 3+1+1, 1+3+1, 1+1+3, 1+1+1+1+1.

%e Let r represent the red square and 1,3,5 represent the possible odd lengths of the white squares for n=5. Then a(5+1) = a(6) = 20 because r combined with a tile of length 5 generates 2 compositions; r combined with 3,1,1 generates 12 compositions; and r combined with 1,1,1,1,1 generates 6 compositions. 2+12+6 = 20. - _Gregory L. Simay_, Aug 14 2016
