Comment (by darij):

 @Nathann: Wasn't you who pointed out on the mailing list a while ago that
 the deprecation message was wrong? This has nothing to do with
 `PartitionTuples` and, as far as I know, the functionality isn't anywhere
 in Sage. The other deprecation messages aren't any more reliable (there
 was a method whose deprecation message pointed to itself).

 @Travis: What you're doing currently computes the cardinality by iterating
 through all of these partitions. This doesn't scale *at all*. I've thought
 about overshadowing `cardinality`, but then I would need to make a new
 class for partitions of given size and given length; is that worth the
 hassle? (Also, I feel that module-level functions can sometimes be better
 than class methods: imagine having to build tons of classes to compute
 several values of the partition function...)
