FORMULA
G.f.: Limit_{K->oo} Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} -(-1)^n * x^(n^2-n-K) / (1 - x^n + n*(n-1)/6 * x^K)^n.
a(p) = 0 for odd prime p (conjecture).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = x^2 + 4*x^4 + 5*x^6 + 20*x^8 - 24*x^9 + 35*x^10 + 84*x^14 - 160*x^15 + 200*x^16 - 150*x^18 + 460*x^20 - 560*x^21 + 286*x^22 + 140*x^24 - 200*x^25 + 455*x^26 - 1440*x^27 + 2100*x^28 - 2180*x^30 + 3840*x^32 - 3080*x^33 + 969*x^34 - 2240*x^35 + 2730*x^36 + 1330*x^38 - 5824*x^39 + 5320*x^40 +...
such that the g.f. equals the limit of the sum, as K tends to infinity,
S(K) = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^(n-K) * (1 - x^n + n*(n+1)/6 * x^(n+K))^n.
