Given $N$ and $K$ we have to find the number of partitions of $N$ into at most $K$ parts modulo $p$.

I was wondering if there was any formula to calculate this type of query.

I know about the recurrence formula $p_k(n)=p_k(n−k)+p_k−1(n)$ also about the ferrers diagram

But this can be used when $N$ and $K$ are small
I need to find for $1leq
N,K leq2*10^5$

  • Is it the parts that are being taken modulo $p$, or is it the number of partitions that's being taken modulo $p$?

  • Number of parts modulo p like $p_3(5)$ = 5,14,23,113,122 so count is 5 as there are 5 ways to represent it and this modulo 11 is 5 and this modulo 3 is 2

Those are small.



That aside, a little thought experiment. Suppose that a nice formula were known for $p_k(n) bmod m$. There are easy upper bounds on $p_k(n)$: for example, $p_k(n) leq (n-k+1)^k-1$. Substitute for $m$ and our nice formula for $p_k(n) bmod (n-k+1)^k-1$ is just a nice formula for $p_k(n)$. But I don't see a nice formula in OEIS, and this is a well-studied and well-referenced sequence, so it's very unlikely that one is known.
