%S 1,5,45,750,20881,880325,54329413,4727396109,563302698378

%N Number of admissible basis in the postage stamp problem for n denominations and h = 5 stamps.

%C A basis 1 = b_1 < b_2 ... < b_n is admissible if all the values 1 <= x <= b_n is obtainable as a sum of at most h (not necessarily distinct) numbers in the basis.
