A143658 Number of squarefree integers not exceeding 2^n. 6
1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 20, 39, 78, 157, 314, 624, 1245, 2491, 4982, 9962, 19920, 39844, 79688, 159360, 318725, 637461, 1274918, 2549834, 5099650, 10199301, 20398664, 40797327, 81594626, 163189197, 326378284, 652756722, 1305513583, 2611027094 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)

0,2

COMMENTS

Except for the first 2 terms, it would not make a difference to replace "not exceeding" by "less than": that sequence would start 0,1,3,6,11,20,39,78,...

Project Euler, Problem 193: Squarefree Numbers

G. P. Michon, On the number of squarefree integers not exceeding N. [From Gerard P. Michon (g.michon(AT)att.net), Apr 30 2009]

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum for i = 1 to 2^(n/2) of A008683(i)*floor(sqrt(2^n/i^2)) [From Gerard P. Michon (g.michon(AT)att.net), Apr 30 2009]

The limit of a(n)/2^n is 6/pi^2. [From Gerard P. Michon (g.michon(AT)att.net), Apr 30 2009]

EXAMPLE

a(4)=11 since there are the 11 squarefree integers { 1,2,3,5,6,7,10,11,13,14,15 } not exceeding 2^4=16.

MATHEMATICA

c = 0; k = 1; lst = {1}; Do[ While[k <= 2^n, If[ SquareFreeQ@k, c++ ]; k++ ]; AppendTo[lst, c], {n, 27}] - Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Aug 31 2008

PROG

(PARI) print1(s=1); for(p=1, 20, print1(", ", s+=sum(k=2^(p-1)+1, 2^p, issquarefree(k))))
