COMMENTS

A family of related sequences can be generated using different positive integers for a(1). (a(1)=1 is sequence A096216.)

EXAMPLE

a(8)=4 because among the first seven terms, namely 2,0,1,1,3,2,5, there are 4 terms that are relatively prime to 8 (1,1,3 and 5).

MAPLE

a[1]:=2: for n from 2 to 100 do s:=0: for j from 1 to n-1 do if gcd(a[j], n)=1 then s:=s+1 else s:=s fi od: a[n]:=s: od: seq(a[n], n=1..84); (Deutsch)

MATHEMATICA

a[1] = 2; a[n_] := a[n] = Count[ GCD[ Table[ a[i], {i, n - 1}], n], 1]; Array[a, 76] (from Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(at)rgwv.com), Dec 27 2005)
