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 60, we have over 367,000 sequences, and we’ve crossed 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Compare the e.g.f. to the identity: Sum_{n>=0} n^n * exp(-n*x) * x^n/n! = 1/(1-x).

FORMULA
E.g.f.: 1 + (1/2)*x/(1-x) - (1/2)*LambertW(-x*exp(x))/(1 + LambertW(-x*exp(x))).
a(n) ~ n^n/(2*sqrt(1+LambertW(exp(-1)))*exp(n)*LambertW(exp(-1))^n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 08 2013
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} (n-2*k)^n * binomial(n,2*k). - Seiichi Manyama, Feb 15 2023
EXAMPLE
E.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 4*x^2/2! + 30*x^3/3! + 352*x^4/4! + 5560*x^5/5! +...
where
A(x) = 1 + 1^1*x*cosh(1*x) + 2^2*cosh(2*x)*x^2/2! + 3^3*cosh(3*x)*x^3/3! + 4^4*cosh(4*x)*x^4/4! + 5^5*cosh(5*x)*x^5/5! +...
