Eric Weisstein's World of Mathematics, Score Sequence.
FORMULA
EXAMPLE
All tournaments with 4 or fewer teams are uniquely defined by their score vectors. Hence a(1) = a(2) = a(3) = a(4) = 0.
For five-team tournaments only two score sequences do not define the tournament uniquely: {1,1,2,3,3} and {1,2,2,2,3}. The first sequence corresponds to two different tournaments and the second sequence to three different tournaments. Thus a(5) = 5.
