--description--

Let p(n) represent the number of different ways in which n coins can be separated into piles. For example, five coins can be separated into piles in exactly seven different ways, so p(5)=7.

Coin piles
OOOOO
OOOO   O
OOO   OO
OOO   O   O
OO   OO   O
OO   O   O   O
O   O   O   O   O

Find the least value of n for which p(n) is divisible by one million.

--hints--

coinPartitions() should return a number.

assert(typeof coinPartitions() === 'number');

coinPartitions() should return 55374.

assert.strictEqual(coinPartitions(), 55374);

--seed-contents--

function coinPartitions() {

  return true;
}
