%N a(n) = n!/5!.

%C The asymptotic expansion of the higher-order exponential integral E(x,m=1,n=6) ~ exp(-x)/x*(1 - 6/x + 42/x^2 - 336/x^3 + 3024/x^4 - 30240/x^5 + 332640/x^6 - 3991680/x^7 + ...) leads to the sequence given above. See A163931 and A130534 for more information. - _Johannes W. Meijer_, Oct 20 2009
