Example

 E.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 7*x^2/2! + 47*x^3/3! + 360*x^4/4! + 2884*x^5/5! +...
such that A(x) = exp(4)*P(x) - Q(x), where
P(x) = 1/Product_{n>=1} (1 - x^n/n) = Sum_{n>=0} A007841(n)*x^n/n!, and
Q(x) = Sum_{n>=1} 4^n / Product_{k=1..n} (k - x^k).
More explicitly,
P(x) = 1/((1-x)*(1-x^2/2)*(1-x^3/3)*(1-x^4/4)*(1-x^5/5)*...);
Q(x) = 4/(1-x) + 4^2/((1-x)*(2-x^2)) + 4^3/((1-x)*(2-x^2)*(3-x^3)) + 4^4/((1-x)*(2-x^2)*(3-x^3)*(4-x^4)) + 4^5/((1-x)*(2-x^2)*(3-x^3)*(4-x^4)*(5-x^5)) +...
We can illustrate the initial terms a(n) in the following manner.
The coefficients in Q(x) = Sum_{n>=0} q(n)*x^n/n! begin:
q(0) = 53.59815003314423907811...
q(1) = 53.59815003314423907811...
q(2) = 156.7944500994327172343...
q(3) = 553.5796503645866298592...
q(4) = 2697.496401856077388374...
q(5) = 14805.80061073873346130...
q(6) = 100818.1006770272116175...
q(7) = 750753.2864076001907799...
q(8) = 6488048.449153118392102...
q(9) = 61223693.06709220629587...
and the coefficients in P(x) = 1/Product_{n>=1} (1 - x^n/n) begin:
A007841 = [1, 1, 3, 11, 56, 324, 2324, 18332, 167544, ...];
from which we can generate this sequence like so:
a(0) = exp(4)*1 - q(0) = 1;
a(1) = exp(4)*1 - q(1) = 1;
a(2) = exp(4)*3 - q(2) = 7;
a(3) = exp(4)*11 - q(3) = 47;
a(4) = exp(4)*56 - q(4) = 360;
a(5) = exp(4)*324 - q(5) = 2884;
a(6) = exp(4)*2324 - q(6) = 26068;
a(7) = exp(4)*18332 - q(7) = 250140;
a(8) = exp(4)*167544 - q(8) = 2659544; ...
