EXAMPLE
For example we look for the next 2 terms after a(7) = 4:
The sequence so far: 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 4.
We count how many times we can sum up consecutive terms to get 4 as result (and include all 4's already in the sequence).
There are 3 ways to get a sum of 4: 1 + 1 + 2, 2 + 2 and 4. This gives us a(8) = 3.
For the next term we count all sums of 3 we can get: 1 + 2, 3, 3. This means there are 3 ways and a(9) = 3.
