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) = 12 partitions:

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

(11) (21) (22) (32) (33) (43) (44)

(111) (31) (41) (42) (52) (53)

(1111) (221) (51) (61) (62)

(11111) (222) (322) (71)

(321) (331) (332)

(2211) (2221) (431)

(111111) (1111111) (2222)

(3221)

(11111111)

The partition y = (3,2,2,1) has maximum 3 and median 2, and 3 < 2*2, so y is counted under a(8).
