%0 Journal Article %T On the Parity of p(n,3) and p_¦·(n,3) %A Mohamed El Bachraoui %J Contributions to Discrete Mathematics %D 2010 %I University of Calgary %X A partition of $n$ is emph{relatively prime} if its parts form a relatively prime set. The number of partitions of $n$ into exactly $k$ parts is denoted by $p(n,k)$ and the number of relatively prime partitions into exactly $k$ parts is denoted by $p_{Psi}(n,k)$. In this paper we deal with the parities of $p(n,3)$ and $p_{Psi}(n,3)$. %U http://cdm.math.ucalgary.ca/cdm/index.php/cdm/article/view/205
