FORMULA
E.g.f.: exp(RootOf(exp(_Z)*x*_Z+exp(_Z)*x-_Z))*x.
a(n) = (n-1)!*Sum_{k=1..n-1} n^k*binomial(n-2,k-1)/k!, a(1)=1. - Vladimir Kruchinin, May 10 2011
a(n) = n!*hypergeom([-n+2], [2], -n) for n>=2. - Peter Luschny, Apr 20 2016
a(n) ~ exp(n/phi - n) * phi^(2*n-2) * n^(n-1) / 5^(1/4), where phi = A001622 = (1+sqrt(5))/2 is the golden ratio. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 01 2017
E.g.f. A(x) satisfies: A(x) = x*exp(A(x)/(1 - A(x))). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Apr 04 2019
a(n) = n * (n-2)! * LaguerreL(n-2, 1, -n) with a(0) = 0 and a(1) = 1. - G. C. Greubel, Feb 23 2021
MAPLE
spec := [S, {C=Set(B), S=Prod(Z, C), B=Sequence(S, 1<= card)}, labeled]:
seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..20);
# Alternatively:
a := n -> `if`(n<2, n, n!*hypergeom([-n+2], [2], -n));
seq(simplify(a(n)), n=0..17); # Peter Luschny, Apr 20 2016
MATHEMATICA

Table[If[n<2, n, n*(n-2)!*LaguerreL[n-2, 1, -n]], {n, 0, 20}] (* G. C. Greubel, Feb 23 2021 *)
