A202034 Number of distinct prime residues of k^n (mod n), k=0..n-1. 4

%N Number of distinct prime residues of k^n (mod n), k=0..n-1.

%C If n is a prime number, a(n) = A000720(n) - 1 because the number of distinct residues of k^n (mod n) = n.

%H Harvey P. Dale, <a href="/A202034/b202034.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000</a>

%e a(7) = 3 because k^7 == 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (mod 7) including 3 prime residues 2, 3, 5.
