%N Cardinality of the smallest nonempty class of length minimal languages with exactly n nonempty words each over a countably infinite alphabet such that within each prefix of a word every letter of the alphabet is at least as frequent as the subsequent alphabet letter.

%C a(n) is the smallest nonzero term in column k of A293815.

%e Breaking the sequence into lines after each 1 gives an irregular triangle whose j-th row equals the A000085(j)-th row of A007318 without its leftmost term. The leftmost column of this triangle is A000085:
