FORMULA
a(n) = 7^n -C(7,6)*6^n +C(7,5)*5^n -C(7,4)*4^n +C(7,3)*3^n -C(7,2)*2^n +C(7,1) with n>=7.
a(n) = A000771(n) * 7!. - Max Alekseyev, Nov 12 2009
G.f.: -5040*x^7/((x-1)*(2*x-1)*(3*x-1)*(4*x-1)*(5*x-1)*(6*x-1)*(7*x-1)). - Colin Barker, Oct 25 2012
E.g.f.: (exp(x) - 1)^7. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jun 19 2018
