EXAMPLE
For n=4, the coins available are 1,2. There are a(4)=3 ways to make 4 cents with these coins:
4 = 1+1+1+1
4 = 2+1+1
4 = 2+2
Since there are 3 ways, now the available coins are 1,2,3. For n=5, we have:
5 = 1+1+1+1+1
5 = 2+1+1+1
5 = 2+2+1
5 = 3+1+1
5 = 3+2
for 5 ways to make change, so now 1,2,3,5 are available, etc.
