A109055 To compute a(n) we first write down 3^n 1's in a row. Each row takes the rightmost 3rd part of the previous row, and each element in it equals sum of the elements of the previous row starting with the first of the rightmost 3rd part. The single element in the last row is a(n). +0

COMMENT

Comment from Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jul 13 2006: This is the number of subpartitions of the sequence 3^n-1. As such it can also be computed adding forward, with 3^n terms in the n-th line:

1...........................................................................

1.1 1.......................................................................

1.2.3.3..3..3..3..3..3......................................................

1.3.6.9.12.15.18.21.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24.24

EXAMPLE

For example, for n=3 the array looks like this:

1..1..1..1..1........1..1..1..1..1..1..1..1..1..1

........................1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9

..........................................7.15.24

...............................................24

Therefore a(3)=24.
