%N a(n) = (n-1)^n.

%C a(n) is the number of functions from {1,2,...,n} into {1,2,...,n} that have no fixed points.

%C The probability that a random function from {1,2,...,n} into {1,2,...,n} has no fixed point is equal to a(n)/n^n; it tends to 1/e when n tends to infinity. - _Robert FERREOL_, Mar 29 2017

%F a(n) = A007778(n-1).

%F E.g.f.: x/(T(x)*(1-T(x))) (where T(x) is Euler's tree function, the E.g.f. for n^(n-1)) (see A000169).

%F a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^k*binomial(n,k)*n^(n-k). - _Robert FERREOL_, Mar 28 2017
