k is strongly prime to n iff k is relatively prime to n and k does not divide n-1.
a(n) = A001783(n) / A007955(n-1) if n > 0 and a(0) = 1.
For 0 we have the empty product, giving 1. - Daniel Forgues, Aug 03 2012
From Robert G. Wilson v, Aug 04 2012: (Start)
Records appear at positions 0, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, ....
Except for 0 and 9, all records appear at prime positions and beginning with the sixth term, are == 0 (mod 100).
There are some primes which are not records: 2, 3, 61, 73, 109, 151, 181, 193, 229, 241, 271, 313, 349, 421, 433, 463, ....
Anti-records appear at positions 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 60, 66, 70, 78, 84, 90, 96, ..., and their values are odd. (End)
