%C The sequences of length n that are counted here are sub-Fibonacci sequences (A005269) with the property that its members, except for the initial two terms, strictly increase. - _Emeric Deutsch_, Feb 15 2007

%F a(n) equals the number of nodes in generation n-2 of the sub-Fibonacci tree (A125051) for n>=2. - _Paul D. Hanna_, Nov 19 2006

%F See the Maple program; g[k](x, y) is the number of sequences s[1], s[2], ..., s[k+2] such that s[1]=x, s[2]=y, s[j-1] <s[j] <= s[j-2]+s[j-1] for j>=3. - _Emeric Deutsch_, Feb 15 2007
