FORMULA

a(n) = sum( n^(k-1) C(n, k) ), k=1..n - Olivier Gerard (olivier.gerard(AT)gmail.com), Jun 26 2001

sum (n^(n-j),j=2..n). - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 11 2006

a(n+1) = A125118(n,n). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 21 2006

a(n)=Integral_{x=1/n..1} 1/x^n dx. [From Francesco Daddi (francesco.daddi(AT)libero.it, Aug 01 2011]

a(n) = A037205(n-1)/(n-1) = A060073(n)*(n-1) = A023037(n)-A000169(n)

EXAMPLE

a(10)=111111111; i.e. just nine 1's (converted from base 10 to decimal)

MAPLE

a:=n->sum ((n+2)^j, j=0..n): seq(a(n), n=-1..17); # [From Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Dec 17 2008]
