FORMULA
a(n) = (1/n) * Sum_{d | n} moebius(n/d) * A007837(d) for n>0. - Andrew Howroyd, Dec 21 2017
EXAMPLE
a(4) = 1: 0001.
a(5) = 3: 00001, 00011, 00101.

a(7) = 24: 0000001, 0000011, 0000101, 0000111, 0000112, 0000121, 0000122, 0001001, 0001011, 0001012, 0001021, 0001022, 0001101, 0001102, 0001201, 0001202, 0010011, 0010012, 0010021, 0010022, 0010101, 0010102, 0010201, 0010202.
