Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Number of oriented series-parallel networks with n elements and without multiple unit elements in parallel.
%C A series configuration is an ordered concatenation of two or more parallel configurations and a parallel configuration is a multiset of two or more unit elements or series configurations. In this variation, parallel configurations may include the unit element only once. a(n) is the total number of series and parallel configurations with n unit elements.

%F a(n) = A339288(n) + A339289(n).
%F G.f.: P(x)/(1 - P(x)) where P(x) is the g.f. of A339289.
%e In the following examples, elements in series are juxtaposed and elements in parallel are separated by '|'. The unit element is denoted by 'o'.
%e a(1) = 1: (o).
%e a(2) = 1: (oo).
%e a(3) = 2: (ooo), (o|oo).

%Y A003430 is the case with multiple unit elements in parallel allowed.
%Y A058387 is the case that order is not significant in series configurations.
