COMMENTS
| The number of partitions of the set N, |N|=n, into k blocks, all of cardinality greater than or equal to 5. This is the 5-associated Stirling number of the second kind.
This is entered as a triangular array. The entries S_5(n,k) are zero for 5k>n, so these values are omitted. Initial entry in sequence is S_5(5,1).
Rows are of lengths 1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,...

FORMULA
| S_r(n+1, k)=k S_r(n, k)+binomial(n, r-1)S_r(n-r+1, k-1) for this sequence, r=5 G.f.: sum(S_r(n, k)u^k ((t^n)/(n!)), n=0..infty, k=0..infty)=exp(u(e^t-sum(t^i/i!, i=0..r-1)))

EXAMPLE
| There are 126 ways of partitioning a set N of cardinality 10 into 2 blocks each of cardinality at least 5, so S_5(10,2)=126.
