%F L.g.f.: L(x) = Sum_{n>=1} ( Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)^(n-k+1)*x^k ) * x^n/n.

%F Logarithmic derivative of A181080.

%e L.g.f.: L(x) = x + 3*x^2/2 + 7*x^3/3 + 39*x^4/4 + 336*x^5/5 + ...

%e which equals the series:

%e log(A(x)) = (1 + x)*x + (1 + 2^2*x + x^2)*x^2/2

%e + (1+ 3^3*x + 3^2*x^2 + x^3)*x^3/3
