%F a(n)=n*(sum_{s=0}^m p^s*(p^(eps(s)*n)-p^(eps(s-1)*n))), where p=5, n=h*p^m, with gcd(h, p)=1, eps(-1)=-infinity, eps(0)=0 and eps(s)=sum_{i=1 to s} 1/(p^i)

%e a(3)=3: there is one totally ramified extension with Galois group S_3, so there are 3 totally ramified extensions in the algebraic closure all isomorphic to Q_5[x]/(x^3+5)
