%E A correspondent reported that terms a(17) - a(19) shown here were wrong. That's not true, they are correct. The correspondent was using Python, where the default precision was not large enough to calculate these terms correctly. Thanks to _Brendan McKay_, _Max Alekseyev_ and _Robert Gerbicz_ for confirming the entries. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 08 2008
