COMMENTS
In general, the number of partitions of n into perfect s-th powers (s>=1) is asymptotic to (2*Pi)^(-(s+1)/2) * sqrt(s/(s+1)) * k * n^(1/(s+1)-3/2) * exp((s+1)*k*n^(1/(s+1))), where k = (Gamma(1 + 1/s) * Zeta(1 + 1/s) / s)^(s/(s+1)) [Hardy & Ramanujan, 1917]. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 29 2016

FORMULA
G.f.: -1+1/product(1-x^(j^4),j=1..infinity). - Emeric Deutsch, Apr 06 2006
a(n) ~ exp(5 * (Gamma(1/4)*Zeta(5/4))^(4/5) * n^(1/5) / 2^(16/5)) * (Gamma(1/4)*Zeta(5/4))^(4/5) / (2^(47/10) * sqrt(5) * Pi^(5/2) * n^(13/10)) [Hardy & Ramanujan, 1917]. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 29 2016
G.f.: Sum_{i>=1} x^(i^4) / Product_{j=1..i} (1 - x^(j^4)). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 07 2017
EXAMPLE
a(33) = 3 because we have [16,16,1], [16,1,1,...,1] (17 1's) and [1,1,...,1] (33 1's).
MAPLE
g:=-1+1/product(1-x^(j^4), j=1..10): gser:=series(g, x=0, 105): seq(coeff(gser, x, n), n=1..102); # Emeric Deutsch, Apr 06 2006
MATHEMATICA
g = -1 + 1/Product[1 - x^(j^4), {j, 1, 10}]; gser =
Series[g, {x, 0, 105}]; Table[Coefficient[gser, x, n], {n, 1, 102}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Oct 29 2012, after Emeric Deutsch *)
