COMMENTS
The number of equivalence classes of primitive sequences of period p, taking values in a set with b elements, is given by: N'(p) = sum_{d|p} mobius(p/d)*N(d) where N denotes the number of equivalence classes in the set of all sequences with period p, taking b values (see A002729). - Pab Ter (pabrlos2(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 22 2005
