FORMULA

E.g.f.: exp ( exp x - 1 - x - (1/2)*x^2 ).

a(n) = sum_{k=1..[n/3]} A059022(n,k), n>=3. [From R. J. Mathar, Nov 08 2008]

a(n) = n! * sum(m=1..n, sum(k=0..m, k!*(-1)^(m-k) *binomial(m,k) *sum(i=0..n-m, stirling2(i+k,k) *binomial(m-k,n-m-i) *2^(-n+m+i)/ (i+k)!))/m!); a(0)=1. [From Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 01 2011]

Define polynomials g_n by g_0=1, g_1=g_2=0, g_3=g_4=g_5=x; g(n) = x*Sum_{i=0..n-3} binomial(n-1,i)*g_i; then a(n) = g_n(1). [Riordan]

MAPLE

Copy ZL := [ B, {B=Set(Set(Z, card>=3))}, labeled ]: [seq(combstruct[count](ZL, size=n), n=0..25)]; - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Mar 13 2007

G:={P=Set(Set(Atom, card>=3))}:combstruct[gfsolve](G, unlabeled, x):seq(combstruct[count]([P, G, labeled], size=i), i=0..25); - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Dec 16 2007

g:=proc(n) option remember; if n=0 then RETURN(1); fi; if n<=2 then RETURN(0); fi; if n<=5 then RETURN(x); fi; expand(x*add(binomial(n-1, i)*g(i), i=0..n-3)); end; [seq(subs(x=1, g(n)), n=0..60)]; [N. J. A. Sloane, Jul 20 2011]

MATHEMATICA

a[ n_] := If[ n < 0, 0, n! SeriesCoefficient[ Exp[ Exp @ x - 1 - x - x^2 / 2], {x, 0, n}]] (* Michael Somos Jul 20 2011 *)

PROG

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, n! * polcoeff( exp( exp( x + x * O(x^n)) - 1 - x - x^2 / 2), n))} /* Michael Somos Jul 20 2011 */
