%N Number of divisors of n which are > 1 and < n (nontrivial divisors).

%C These are sometimes called the proper divisors, but see A032741 for the usual meaning of that term.

%C a(n) = number of ordered factorizations of n into two factors, n = 2, 3, ... If n has the prime factorization n=Product p^e(j), j=1..r, the number of compositions of the vector (e(1), ..., e(r)) equals the number of ordered factorizations of n. Andrews (1998, page 59) gives a formula for the number of m-compositions of (e(1), ..., e(r)) which equals the number f(n,m) of ordered m-factorizations of n. But with m=2 the formula reduces to f(n,2) = d(n)-2 = a(n). - _Augustine O. Munagi_, Mar 31 2005

%C a(n) = 0 if and only if n is 1 or prime. - _Jon Perry_, Nov 08 2008

%C For n > 2: number of zeros in n-th row of triangle A051778. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Dec 03 2014

%C a(n) = number of partitions of n in which largest and least parts occur exactly once and their difference is 2. Example: a(12) = 4 because we have [7,5], [5,4,3], [4,3,3,2], and [3,2,2,2,2,1]. In general, if d is a nontrivial divisor of n, then [d+1,{d}^(n/d-2),d-1] is a partition of n of the prescribed type. - _Emeric Deutsch_, Nov 03 2015

%F a(n) = A000005(n)-2, n>=2 (with the number-of-divisors function d(n) = A000005(n)).

%F a(n) = d(n)-2, for n>=2, where d(n) is the number-of-divisors function. E.g., a(12) = 4 because 12 has 4 ordered factorizations into two factors: 2*6, 6*2, 3*4, 4*3. - _Augustine O. Munagi_, Mar 31 2005

%F Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ n*log(n) + (2*gamma - 3)*n, where gamma is Euler's constant (A001620). - _Amiram Eldar_, Nov 27 2022
