COMMENTS
Row lengths are A046072.
The products of the terms in each row are A000010.
First column is A002322.
Row 2^k is [2, 2^(k-2)] for k > 2. - Tom Edgar, May 31 2015
Row p^k (and row 2*p^k) is [(p-1)*p^(k-1)] for odd prime p. - Tom Edgar, May 31 2015

The row for n=8 reads: 2,2 because the multiplicative group mod 8 is isomorphic to C_2 X C_2.
