FORMULA
See formula in A212846, setting p=1,q=7.
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} k! * (-1)^k * 8^(n-k) * Stirling2(n,k). - Seiichi Manyama, Mar 13 2022
EXAMPLE
polylog(-5,-1/7)*8^6/7 = 3464.
MAPLE
seq(add((-1)^(n-k)*combinat[eulerian1](n, k)*7^k, k=0..n), n=0..17); # Peter Luschny, Apr 21 2013
MATHEMATICA
f[n_] := PolyLog[-n, -1/7] 8^(n + 1)/7; f[0] = 1; Array[f, 20, 0] (* Robert G. Wilson v, Dec 25 2015 *)
