%N A008965 Number of necklaces of sets of beads containing a total of n beads.
%C A008965 A necklace of sets of beads is a cycle where each element of the cycle 
               is itself a set of beads, the total size being the total number of 
               beads.
%C A008965 Equivalently, a(n) is the number of cyclic compositions of n.

%e A008965 E.g. the 5 necklaces for n=4 are (3, 1), (4), (1, 1, 1, 1), (2, 1, 1), 
               (2, 2).
%e A008965 In the Combstruct language these can be described as Cycle(Set(Z), Set(Z), 
               Set(Z), Set(Z)), Cycle(Set(Z, Z), Set(Z), Set(Z)), Cycle(Set(Z, Z, 
               Z, Z)), Cycle(Set(Z, Z), Set(Z, Z)), Cycle(Set(Z), Set(Z, Z, Z)).
%e A008965 For n=6 the 13 necklaces are (2, 3, 1), (2, 1, 1, 1, 1), (2, 2, 2), (2, 
               4), (3, 3), (4, 1, 1), (1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1), (3, 1, 1, 1), (2, 2, 1, 
               1), (1, 5), (2, 1, 3), (6), (2, 1, 2, 1). [Example corrected by Marcel
