FORMULA

Ramanujan gave an asymptotic formula (see Almkvist).

G.f.: 1/Product_{m>0} ((1-q^(2m))(1+q^(2m-1))^2) = 1/theta_3(q).

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<0, 0, polcoeff(1/sum(k=1, sqrtint(n), 2*x^k^2, 1+x*O(x^n)), n))

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A); if(n<0, 0, A=x*O(x^n); polcoeff( eta(x+A)^2*eta(x^4+A)^2/eta(x^2+A)^5, n))}

CROSSREFS

a(n)=(-1)^n*A015128(n).
