EXAMPLE

12 = 3*4 = 2*6 = 2*2*3, 4 product signs are needed, so a(12)=4.

24 = 12*2 = 6*2*2 = 4*3*2 = 3*2*2*2 = 8*3 = 6*4 with 10 multiplies so a(24) = 10.

MATHEMATICA

g[1, r_] := g[1, r]={1, 0}; g[n_, r_] := g[n, r]=Module[{ds, i, val}, ds=Select[Divisors[n], 1<#<=r&]; val={0, 0}+Sum[g[n/ds[[i]], ds[[i]]], {i, 1, Length[ds]}]; val+{0, val[[1]]}]; a[1]=0; a[n_] := g[n, n][[2]]-g[n, n][[1]]; a/@Range[97] (* g[n, r] = {c, f}, where c is the number of factorizations of n with factors <= r and f is the total number of factors in them. - Dean Hickerson Oct 10 2002 *)
