Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N a(n) is the total number of noncentral divisors in all positive integers <= n.
%C The original name was: Partial sums of A161840.
%F a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} (tau(k)-2 + (tau(k) mod 2)), tau = A000005.
%F a(n) ~ n * (log(n) + 2*gamma - 3), where gamma is Euler's constant (A001620). - _Amiram Eldar_, Jan 19 2024
