%N Based on an erroneous version of A008614.

%C This is based on the formula in Burnside, Section 267, at the foot of page 363. Unfortunately there is a typo in the formula - the term with numerator 21 should have denominator (1+x)(1-x^3). This produces a sequence with 4's in the denominators. Multiplying by 4 gives a sequence of integers, shown here. This is included in the OEIS in accordance with our policy of publishing incorrect sequences together with pointers to the correct versions. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Feb 21 2012

%D W. Burnside, Theory of Groups of Finite Order, Dover, NY, 1955, section 267, page 363

%F A precise definition is: Take the generating function as given by Burnside, expand as a Taylor series, and multiply by 4.
