%N Sum of the larger parts of the partitions of n into two parts such that the smaller part is odd.

%C Sum of the lengths of the distinct rectangles with integer length and odd width such that L + W = n, W <= L. For example, a(6) = 8; the rectangles with odd width are 1 X 5 and 3 X 3, and the sum of their lengths gives 5 + 3 = 8. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Dec 06 2017

%F a(n) = Sum_{i=1..floor(n/2)} (n-i) * (i mod 2).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Dec 06 2017: (Start)

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

%F a(n) = a(n-1) + 2*a(n-4) - 2*a(n-5) - a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>9.

%F (End)

%F a(n) = (1/64)*(12*n^2+4*n-6-4*(-1)^((2*n-3-(-1)^n)/4)+(4*n-2)*(-1)^n+(8*n-4)*(-1)^((2*n+3+(-1)^n)/4)). - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Dec 06 2017

%e a(10) = 21; the partitions of 10 into two parts are 9 + 1, 8 + 2, 7 + 3, 6 + 4 and 5 + 5. Of these, three have an odd smaller part and the sum of the larger parts of these partitions gives 9 + 7 + 5 = 21.
