FORMULA
If omega(n) is even then a(n) = 0 else a(n) = 1. By convention, a(1) = 0. (Also because A001221(1) = 0 is an even number too).
EXAMPLE
For n = 1, 0 primes divide 1 so a(1)=0.
For n = 2, there is 1 distinct prime dividing 2 (itself) so a(2)=1.
For n = 4 = 2^2, there is 1 distinct prime dividing 4 so a(4)=1.
For n = 5, there is 1 distinct prime dividing 5 (itself) so a(5)=1.
For n = 6 = 2*3, there are 2 distinct primes dividing 6 so a(6)=0.
