%N Number of ways writing n as a sum of different Mersenne prime exponents (terms of A000043).

%C This sequence appears to be growing. However, for 704338 < n < 756839, a(n) is 0. See A078426 for the n such that a(n)=0. - _T. D. Noe_, Oct 12 2006

%e n = 50 = 2 + 5 + 7 + 17 + 19 = 2 + 17 + 31 = 19 + 31, so a(50) = 3. The first numbers for which the number of these Mersenne-exponent partitions is k = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 are 1, 2, 5, 20, 22, 39, 66, 92, 107, respectively.
