%N Number of subsets of {1..n} that cannot be linearly combined using nonnegative coefficients to obtain n.

%H S. R. Finch, <a href="/A066062/a066062.pdf">Monoids of natural numbers</a>, March 17, 2009.

%F a(n) = 2^n - A365073(n).

%e The set {4,5,6} cannot be linearly combined to obtain 7 so is counted under a(7), but we have 8 = 2*4 + 0*5 + 0*6, so it is not counted under a(8).

%e The a(1) = 1 through a(8) = 12 subsets:

%e {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {}

%e {2} {3} {2} {4} {2} {3}

%e {3} {5} {3} {5}

%e {4} {4,5} {4} {6}

%e {2,4} {5} {7}

%e {3,4} {6} {3,6}

%e {2,4} {3,7}

%e {2,6} {5,6}

%e {3,5} {5,7}

%e {3,6} {6,7}

%e {4,5} {3,6,7}

%e {4,6} {5,6,7}

%e {5,6}

%t combs[n_,y_]:=With[{s=Table[{k,i},{k,y},{i,0,Floor[n/k]}]},Select[Tuples[s],Total[Times@@@#]==n&]];

%t Table[Length[Select[Subsets[Range[n-1]],combs[n,#]=={}&]],{n,5}]

%Y The complement is counted by A365073, without n A365542.

%Y The binary complement is A365314, positive A365315.

%Y The binary case is A365320, positive A365321.

%Y For positive coefficients we have A365322, complement A088314.

%Y A124506 appears to count combination-free subsets, differences of A326083.

%Y A179822 counts sum-closed subsets, first differences of A326080.

%Y A288728 counts binary sum-free subsets, first differences of A007865.

%Y A365046 counts combination-full subsets, first differences of A364914.

%Y A365071 counts sum-free subsets, first differences of A151897.
