%N a(n) = Sum_{j=0..k-1} (i(j) - j) where n = Sum_{j=0..k-1} 2^i(j).

%C Used to calculate number of subspaces of Zp^n where Zp is field of integers mod p.

%C Consider a square matrix A and call it special if (0) A is an upper triangular matrix, (1) a nonzero column of A has a 1 on the main diagonal and (2) if a row has a 1 on the main diagonal then this is the only nonzero element in that row.

%C If the diagonal of a special matrix is given (it can only contain 0's and 1's), many of the fields of A are determined by (0), (1) and (2). The number of fields that can be freely chosen while still satisfying (0), (1) and (2) is a(n), where n is the diagonal, read as a binary number with least significant bit at upper left.

%C a(n) is also the minimum number of adjacent bit swap operations required to pack all the ones of n to the right. - _Philippe Beaudoin_, Aug 19 2014

%C From _Rakesh Khanna A_, Aug 06 2021: (Start)

%C a(n) is also the area under the curve formed from the binary representation of n where each 0-bit corresponds to an increase of one unit along the x-axis and each 1-bit corresponds to an increase of one unit along the y-axis.

%C E.g., n = 20 = 10100_2 and the area under the curve shown below is a(n) = 5.

%C 1 0 1 0 0
