%N a(n) is the number of ways to represent n as n = x*y + y*z + z*x where 0 < x < y < z.

%C a(n) = 0 if and only if n is a term of A000926.

%C a(n) = 1 if and only if n is a term of A093669.

%F For the triples (x,y,z) we have x < sqrt(n / 3), y < (n - x^2) / (2 * x), z = (n - x*y) / (x + y) which must be integer. - _David A. Corneth_, Oct 01 2017

%e For (x, y, z) = (1, 3, 5), we have x * y + y * z + z * x = 1 * 3 + 3 * 5 + 5 * 1 = 23 and similarily for (x, y, z) = (1, 2, 7), we have x * y + y * z + z * x = 23. Those 2 triples are all for n=23, so a(23) = 2. - _David A. Corneth_, Oct 01 2017
