%N Position in the sequence of numbers that are not perfect powers (A007916) of the smallest positive integer x such that for some positive integer y we have n = x^y (A052410).
%C Every pair p of positive integers is of the form p = (a(n), A052409(n)) for exactly one n.
%F For n>1 we have a(n) = A278028(n,1).
%e a(27)=2 because the smallest root of 27 is 3, and 3 is the 2nd entry of A007916.
%e a(25)=3 because the smallest root of 25 is 5, and 5 is the 3rd entry of A007916.
