%N Number of n-node labeled acyclic digraphs with 1 out-point.

%C From _Gus Wiseman_, Jan 02 2024: (Start)

%C Also the number of n-element sets of finite nonempty subsets of {1..n}, including a unique singleton, such that there is exactly one way to choose a different element from each. For example, the a(0) = 0 through a(3) = 15 set-systems are:

%C . {{1}} {{1},{1,2}} {{1},{1,2},{1,3}}

%C {{2},{1,2}} {{1},{1,2},{2,3}}

%C {{1},{1,3},{2,3}}

%C {{2},{1,2},{1,3}}

%C {{2},{1,2},{2,3}}

%C {{2},{1,3},{2,3}}

%C {{3},{1,2},{1,3}}

%C {{3},{1,2},{2,3}}

%C {{3},{1,3},{2,3}}

%C {{1},{1,2},{1,2,3}}

%C {{1},{1,3},{1,2,3}}

%C {{2},{1,2},{1,2,3}}

%C {{2},{2,3},{1,2,3}}

%C {{3},{1,3},{1,2,3}}

%C {{3},{2,3},{1,2,3}}

%C These set-systems are all connected.

%C The case of labeled graphs is A000169.
