%N a(n) is the number of unitary (and also of squarefree) divisors of n!.

%C Let K(n) be the field that is generated over the rationals Q by adjoining the square roots of the numbers 1,2,3,...,n, i.e., K(n) = Q(sqrt(1),sqrt(2),...,sqrt(n)); a(n) is the degree of this field over Q. - Avi Peretz (njk(AT)netvision.net.il), Mar 20 2001

%C For n>1, a(n) is the number of ways n! can be expressed as the product of two coprime integers p and q such that 0 < p/q < 1, if negative integers are considered as well. This is the answer to the 2nd problem of the International Mathematical Olympiad 2001. Example, for n = 3, the a(3) = 4 products are 3! = (-2)*(-3) = (-1)*(-6) = 1*6 = 2*3. - _Bernard Schott_, Jan 21 2021

%C a(n) = number of subsets S of {1,2,...,n} such that every number in S is a prime. - _Clark Kimberling_, Sep 17 2022

%F A001221(n!) = A000720(n) so a(n) = A034444(n!) = 2^A000720(n).

%e For n=7, n! = 5040 = 16*9*5*7 with 4 distinct prime factors, so a(7) = A034444(7!) = 16.

%e The subsets S of {1, 2, 3, 4} such that every number in S is a prime are these: {}, {2}, {3}, {2, 3}; thus, a(4) = 4. - _Clark Kimberling_, Sep 17 2022
