%F From _David A. Corneth_, Oct 27 2017: (Start)

%F For odd n, a(n) = n^3/3 - n^2/2 + n/6 = A000330(n + 1).

%F For even n, a(n) = n^3/3 - 3*n^2/4 + n/6.

%F (End)

%F From _Colin Barker_, Nov 04 2017: (Start)

%F G.f.: x^3*(5 + 5*x + 5*x^2 + x^3) / ((1 - x)^4*(1 + x)^3).

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2) - 3*a(n-3) - 3*a(n-4) + 3*a(n-5) + a(n-6) - a(n-7) for n > 7.

%F (End)

%F a(n) = n*(2*n^2-3*n*(5+(-1)^n)/4+1)/6. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Dec 03 2023

%e For n = 6, there are two ways of partitioning 6 into two distinct parts: 6 = 1+5 and 6 = 2+4. So a(6) = 1^2 + 5^2 + 2^2 + 4^2 = 46.

%e For n = 7, there are three ways of partitioning 7 into two distinct parts: 7 = 1+6, 7 = 2+5, and 7 = 3+4. So a(7) = 1^2 + 6^2 + 2^2 + 5^2 + 3^2 + 4^2 = 91. - _Michael B. Porter_, Nov 05 2017
