Also the highest power of 10 dividing n! (different from A054899). - Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 18 2007
a(n) = (n - A053824(n))/4. - Lekraj Beedassy, Nov 01 2010
Alternatively, a(n) equals the expansion of the base-5 representation A007091(n) of n (i.e., where successive positions from right to left stand for 5^n or A000351(n)) under a scale of notation whose successive positions from right to left stand for (5^n - 1)/4 or A003463(n); for instance, n = 7392 has base-5 expression 2*5^5 + 1*5^4 + 4*5^3 + 0*5^2 + 3*5^1 + 2*5^0, so that a(7392) = 2*781 + 1*156 + 4*31 + 0*6 + 3*1 + 2*0 = 1845. - Lekraj Beedassy, Nov 03 2010
Partial sums of A112765. - Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 06 2012

FORMULA
|
a(n) = sum(i>=1, floor(n/5^i)).
a(n) = (n-A053824(n))/4.
From Hieronymus Fischer, Jun 25 2007 and Aug 13 2007, edited by M. F. Hasler, Dec 27 2019: (Start)
G.f.: g(x) = Sum_{k>0} x^(5^k)/(1-x^(5^k))/(1-x).
a(n) = Sum_{5<=k<=n} Sum_{j|k, j>=5} floor(log_5(j)) - floor(log_5(j-1)).
G.f.: g(x) = L[b(k)](x)/(1-x)
where L[b(k)](x) = Sum_{k>=0} b(k)*x^k/(1-x^k) is a Lambert series with b(k) = 1, if k>1 is a power of 5, else b(k) = 0.
G.f.: g(x) = Sum_{k>0} c(k)*x^k/(1-x),
where c(k) = Sum_{j>1, j|k} floor(log_5(j)) - floor(log_5(j - 1)).
Recurrence:
a(n) = floor(n/5) + a(floor(n/5));
a(5*n) = n + a(n);
a(n*5^m) = n*(5^m-1)/4 + a(n).
a(k*5^m) = k*(5^m-1)/4, for 0 <= k < 5, m >= 0.
Asymptotic behavior:
a(n) = n/4 + O(log(n)),
a(n+1) - a(n) = O(log(n)), which follows from the inequalities below.
a(n) <= (n-1)/4; equality holds for powers of 5.
a(n) >= n/4 - 1 - floor(log_5(n)); equality holds for n = 5^m-1, m > 0.
lim inf (n/4 - a(n)) = 1/4, for n -> oo.
lim sup (n/4 - log_5(n) - a(n)) = 0, for n -> oo.
lim sup (a(n+1) - a(n) - log_5(n)) = 0, for n -> oo.
(End)
a(n) <= A027869(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 27 2008
10^a(n) = A000142(n) / A004154(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 24 2012
