%N Number of permutations of n elements with an odd number of fixed points.
%H Harry J. Smith, <a href="/A063083/b063083.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n=0..100</a>
%F E.g.f.: sinh(x) * exp(-x)/(1-x). Asymptotic expression: a(n) ~ n! * (1 - 1/e^2)/2 i.e. as n goes to infinity the fraction for permutations that has an odd number of fixed points is about (1 - 1/e^2)/2 = 0.432332...
%F a(n) = n! - A062282(n) = n! - sum k=0 ... [n/2] sum l=0...n-2k (-1)^l * n!/((2k)! * l!)
%F Recurrence: a(n) = n*a(n-1)+(-2)^(n-1). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Apr 11 2003
%F More generally, e.g.f. for number of degree-n permutations with an odd number of k-cycles is sinh(x^k/k)*exp(-x^k/k)/(1-x). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Jan 31 2006
%F a(n) = (Gamma(n+1) - Gamma(n+1,-2)*exp(-2))/2, where Gamma(a,x) is the incomplete gamma function. - _Ilya Gutkovskiy_, May 06 2016
