EXAMPLE
For n=0 the a(0)=2 solutions are the empty graph K0 and the complete graph K1.
For n=1 the a(1)=2 solutions are the complete graph K2 and the union of K2 and K1.
For n=2 the a(2)=2 solutions are 2K2 (the union of two K2) and the union of two K2 and one K1.
For n=3 the a(3)=3 solutions are the complete graph K3, 3K2 (the union of three K2), and the union of three K2 and one K1.
For n=4 the a(4)=6 solutions are the paw (3-pan), the 4-cycle C4, the union of C4 and K1, the union of K2 and K3, 4K2 (the union of four K2), and the union of four K2 and one K1.
