COMMENTS
The sequence considers reflections and rotations as distinct tilings.
The polyominoes being tiled and the tiles themselves may be with or without holes.
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 4 because any tromino can be tiled by (1) a tromino, (2) 3 monominoes, and (3) a monomino and a domino in two distinct ways.
