A099848 All natural numbers occur in their order as many times as they have ordered prime factorizations.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 18, 18, 19, 20, 20, 20, 21, 21, 22, 22, 23, 24, 24, 24, 24, 25, 26, 26, 27, 28, 28, 28, 29, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 30, 31, 32, 33, 33, 34, 34, 35, 35, 36, 36, 36, 36, 36, 36, 37, 38, 38, 39, 39, 40

Comments

n occurs exactly once iff n is a prime power (A000961);

n occurs exactly twice iff n is a semiprime with distinct factors (A006881);

a(A099849(n) - k) = n for 0 <= k < A008480(n).

Example

n = 12: A008480(12) = #{3*2*2, 2*3*2, 2*2*3} = 3, therefore 12 occurs three times.
