For partitions of natural numbers, there is an asymptotic formula of the Hardy-Ramanujan. In this paper we propose to compare this formula with the number of microstates, using entropy calculation of the quantum string by means of Euler-Maclaurin formula. The work briefly touches upon a different approach, using counting the number of states through the inverse Laplace transformation of the partition function.
