COMMENTS

a(n) = A062970(n) - 1.

Starting from the second term, 1, the terms could be described as the special case (n=1; j=1) of the following general formula: a(n) = <from k=j to k=i> Sum [(n + k - 1)]^(k) n=1; j=1; i=1,2,3,...,... For (n=0; j=1) the formula yields A062815 n=0; j=1; i=2,3,4,... For (n=2; j=0) we get A060946 and for (n=3; j=0) A117887. - Alexander Povolotsky (pevnev(AT)juno.com), Sep 01 2007
