How to Use
Enter n:
- Partitions: All representations
- Count: p(n)
- Types: Distinct, odd parts
Euler's Contributions
Euler proved: # partitions with distinct parts = # partitions with odd parts. Generating function: Σp(n)xⁿ = Π1/(1−xᵏ). Pentagonal theorem gives recurrence for p(n).
Young Diagrams
Each partition has a Young diagram: rows of boxes. Conjugate: transpose the diagram. Self-conjugate partitions ↔ partitions with distinct odd parts.
