Comments

Includes all partitions of even length (A027187).

Also the number of integer partitions of n with reverse-alternating sum <= 1.

Also the number of integer partitions of n having either even length (A027187) or having exactly one odd part in the conjugate partition (A100824).

We define the alternating product of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) to be Product_i y_i^((-1)^(i-1)). The reverse-alternating product is the alternating product of the reversed sequence.

Formula

a(n) = A027187(n) + A035363(n-1) for n >= 1. [Corrected by Georg Fischer, Dec 13 2022]

a(n) = A119620(n) + A344608(n).

Example

The a(1) = 1 through a(8) = 12 partitions:
  (1)  (11)  (21)   (22)    (32)     (33)      (43)       (44)
             (111)  (31)    (41)     (42)      (52)       (53)
                    (1111)  (221)    (51)      (61)       (62)
                            (2111)   (2211)    (331)      (71)
                            (11111)  (3111)    (2221)     (2222)
                                     (111111)  (3211)     (3221)

                                               (22111)    (4211)
                                               (211111)   (5111)
                                               (1111111)  (221111)
                                                          (311111)
