COMMENTS

The median of a multiset is either the middle part (for odd length), or the average of the two middle parts (for even length).

EXAMPLE

The a(1) = 1 through a(8) = 16 partitions:

(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8)

(11) (111) (22) (311) (33) (331) (44)

(31) (11111) (42) (421) (53)

(1111) (51) (511) (62)

(222) (3211) (71)

(321) (31111) (422)

(3111) (1111111) (431)

(111111) (521)

(2222)

(3221)

(3311)

(4211)

(5111)

(32111)

(311111)

(11111111)

For example, the partition y = (7,4,2,1,1) has distinct parts {1,2,4,7} with median 3, so y is counted under a(15).
