COMMENTS
a(n) is the sum of all terms in the rows of permutations of the powers of 2. For k=1..n, term(k) can be any power of 2 from 0 to k-1; thus for term(3) it may be 1 or 2 or 4. Find all n! rows of permutations and the sum of the terms in all these rows. This sum will be a(n). - J. M. Bergot, Jun 18 2015

FORMULA
E.g.f.: log((1-2*x)/(1-x))/(x-1). a(n) = n! * Sum_{k=1..n} (2^k-1)/k. - Vladeta Jovovic, Jan 29 2005
a(n) ~ 2^(n+1)*(n-1)!. - Jean-François Alcover, Nov 28 2013
a(n+4) = 2*(n+3)*(n+2)^2*a(n+1)-(n+3)*(13+5*n)*a(n+2)+(4*n+13)*a(n+3). - Robert Israel, Jun 19 2015
a(n) = -n!*log(2) + Sum_{k>=1} (k+n)!/(2^k*k*k!). - Groux Roland, Dec 18 2010
From Vladimir Reshetnikov, Apr 24 2016: (Start)
a(n) = n!*((n+1)*hypergeom([1, 1, n+2], [2, 2], 1/2)/2 - log(2)).
a(n) = n!*(-H(n) - Re(Beta(2; n+1, 0))).
a(n) = n!*(-H(n) - 2^(n+1)*Re(LerchPhi(2, 1, n+1))), where H(n) is the harmonic number, Beta(z; a, b) is the incomplete Beta function, LerchPhi(z, s, a) is the Lerch transcendent.
(End)
a(n) = -Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^k*k!*A021009(n, k+1). - Mélika Tebni, Jun 20 2022
