%N Number of integer compositions of n with the same length as their alternating sum.

%C A composition of n is a finite sequence of positive integers summing to n.

%C The alternating sum of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(i-1) y_i.

%e The a(1) = 1 through a(8) = 6 compositions:

%e (1) (31) (113) (42) (124) (53)

%e (212) (223) (1151)

%e (311) (322) (2141)

%e (421) (3131)

%e (4121)

%e (5111)

%t ats[y_]:=Sum[(-1)^(i-1)*y[[i]],{i,Length[y]}];

%t Table[Length[Select[Join@@Permutations/@IntegerPartitions[n],Length[#]==ats[#]&]],{n,0,15}]

%Y For product instead of length we have A114220.

%Y For sum equal to twice alternating sum we have A262977, ranked by A348614.

%Y For product equal to sum we have A335405, ranked by A335404.

%Y For absolute value we have A357183.

%Y These compositions are ranked by A357184.

%Y The case of partitions is A357189.

%Y A003242 counts anti-run compositions, ranked by A333489.

%Y A011782 counts compositions.

%Y A025047 counts alternating compositions, ranked by A345167.

%Y A124754 gives alternating sums of standard compositions.

%Y A238279 counts compositions by sum and number of maximal runs.

%Y A261983 counts non-anti-run compositions.

%Y A357136 counts compositions by alternating sum.
