%N Generalized Stirling numbers.

%C The asymptotic expansion of the higher order exponential integral E(x,m=6,n=2) ~ exp(-x)/x^6*(1 - 27/x + 511/x^2 - 8624/x^3 + 140889/x^4 - ...) leads to the sequence given above. See A163931 for E(x,m,n) information and A163932 for a Maple procedure for the asymptotic expansion. - _Johannes W. Meijer_, Oct 20 2009

%F a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n+k)*binomial(k+5, 5)*2^k*Stirling1(n+5, k+5). - Borislav Crstici (bcrstici(AT)etv.utt.ro), Jan 26 2004

%F E.g.f.: (6-120*log(1-x)+465*log(1-x)^2-580*log(1-x)^3+261*log(1-x)^4-36*log(1-x)^5)/(6*(1-x)^7). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Mar 01 2004

%F If we define f(n,i,a)=sum(binomial(n,k)*stirling1(n-k,i)*product(-a-j,j=0..k-1),k=0..n-i), then a(n-5) = |f(n,5,2)|, for n>=5. [From _Milan Janjic_, Dec 21 2008]
