Question 1127116: A partition of a natural number n is a representation of n as a sum of natural numbers in which order does not matter.3+2+2+1+1 is a partition of nine, as is 2+1+3+2+1 is also the same partition of 9. A number is also considered to be a partition of itself. If p(n) means the number of partitions of n, then what is the value of p(1)+p(2)+p(3)+p(4)+p(5)+p(6)+p(7)+p(8)?
