%N Number of n X n matrices over GF(7) with rank 1.

%F a(n) = 1/6 * (7^n - 1)^2.
%F G.f.: -6*x*(7*x+1) / ((x-1)*(7*x-1)*(49*x-1)). [_Colin Barker_, Dec 23 2012]
%e a(2) = 384 because there are 385 (the second element in sequence A060721) singular 2 X 2 matrices over GF(7), that have rank <= 1 of which only the zero matrix has rank zero so a(2) = 385 - 1 = 384.
