COMMENTS
| Start from the prime number decomposition of n, that is the list 1, 2, 3, 2^2, 5, 2*3, 7, 2^3, 3^2, 2*5, 11, 2^2*3... Subtract 1 from all visible bases and exponents (visible in the sense that exponents are not written down if they equal 1), to give 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, (2-1)^(2-1), 5-1, (2-1)*(3-1), 7-1, (2-1)^(3-1), (3-1)^(2-1), (2-1)*(5-1), 11-1, (2-1)^(2-1)*(3-1)..). Evaluate this modified product to yield a(n).
