Formula

From Petros Hadjicostas, Oct 01 2019: (Start)

a(n) = A068324(n) - A001227(n) + (1/2) * (1 - (-1)^n).

G.f.: x/(1 - x^2) + Sum_{m >= 2} x^(m^2)/((1 - x^(2*m)) * (1 - x^(m*(m-1))).

(End)

Example

From Petros Hadjicostas, Sep 29 2019: (Start)
a(12) = 3 because we have the following arithmetic progressions of odd numbers, strictly increasing with sum n=12: 1+11, 3+9, and 5+7.
a(13) = 1 because we have only the following arithmetic progressions of odd numbers, strictly increasing with sum n=13: 13.
a(14) = 3 because we have the following arithmetic progressions of odd numbers, strictly increasing with sum n=14: 1+13, 3+11, and 5+9.
a(15) = 3 because we have the following arithmetic progressions of odd numbers, strictly increasing with sum n=15: 15, 3+5+7, and 1+5+9.
