%N a(n) = (n-1)! + 1 mod n^3.

%C There is no known number n > 1 for which a(n)=0.

%C For a(n) to equal 1, (n-1)! must be divisible by n^3 which tends to be the most frequent case for large n. For example, all n which are a product of three or more distinct primes belong to this category. So do all proper powers of primes except 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, 3^2, and 5^2.

%C Obviously, when a(n) = 1, then also A055976(n) = 1 and A301316(n) = 1.

%C If n is prime, a(n) is divisible by n. - _Robert Israel_, Mar 20 2018

%e From _Muniru A Asiru_, Mar 20 2018: (Start)

%e ((1-1)! + 1) mod 1^3 = (0! +1) mod 1 = 2 mod 1 = 0.

%e ((2-1)! + 1) mod 2^3 = (1! +1) mod 8 = 2 mod 8 = 2.

%e ((3-1)! + 1) mod 3^3 = (2! +1) mod 27 = 3 mod 27 = 3.

%e ((4-1)! + 1) mod 4^3 = (3! +1) mod 64 = 7 mod 64 = 7.

%e ((5-1)! + 1) mod 5^3 = (4! +1) mod 125 = 25 mod 125 = 25.
