A363058 Number of ways to get n points in a bridge hand. 2

COMMENTS
The most common way of evaluating a bridge hand (13 cards from a standard deck) is to count a jack as 1 point, a queen as 2 points, a king as 3 points, and an ace as 4 points, and add them together. (Suits are ignored.)
LINKS
EXAMPLE
a(2)=2 because you can have a total of 2 points in two ways: two jacks or one queen, and a(3)=3 because you can have a total of 3 points in three ways: one king, one queen plus one jack, or three jacks.
