COMMENTS
Primes include a(10) = 3, a(12) = 5, a(16) = 19, a(24) = 397. a(n) is unrelated to n for a(14) = 10, a(15) = 10, a(18) = 39, a(20) = 85, a(21) = 66, a(22) = 164.
FORMULA
For primes p>3, a(p) = 0.
EXAMPLE
a(6) = 1 because 4 is the only number less than 6 which is unrelated to 6, so a(6) = a(4) = 1.
a(10) = a(4) + a(6) + a(8) = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3.
a(12) = a(8) + a(9) + a(10) = 1 + 1 + 3 = 5.
MATHEMATICA
unr[n_, k_] := GCD[n, k] > 1 && Mod[n, k] > 0; a[1] = a[2] = a[3] = a[4] = 1;
a[n_] := a[n] = Sum[a[k] Boole[unr[n, k]], {k, n - 1}]; Array[a, 60]
