FORMULA
|
a(n) = (k!/n) Sum_{d|n} phi(d) S2(n/d,k), where k=6 is the number of colors and S2 is the Stirling subset number A008277.
G.f.: -Sum_{d>0} (phi(d)/d) * Sum_{j} (-1)^(k-j) * C(k,j) * log(1-j x^d), where k=6 is the number of colors. (End)

EXAMPLE
|
For n=6, the 120 necklaces are A followed by the 120 permutations of BCDEF.
