A361001 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of tilings of an n X k rectangle by integer-sided rectangular pieces that cannot be rearranged to produce a different tiling of the rectangle (except rotations and reflections of the original tiling), 1 <= k <= n.

1, 2, 4, 3, 7, 9, 4, 11, 18, 23, 4, 14, 22, 34, 41, 6, 23, 42, 72, 108

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..20.

Formula

T(n,1) = A361003(n) = A000005(n) + floor((n-1)/2). (The first term corresponds to cases where all pieces have the same size, the second to cases where there are two pieces of different sizes.)
