%N Number of terms of the set of divisors of n that are not the product of any other two distinct divisors.

%C Sets contain 1, primes and powers of primes.

%C a(n) <= A000005(n), a(n) <= A222084(n) and a(p) = 2 with p prime.

%C Record values for:

%C a(1) = 1

%C a(2) = 2

%C a(4) = 3

%C a(12) = 4

%C a(36) = 5

%C a(900) = 7

%C a(6300) = 8

%C a(44100) = 9

%C a(485100) = 10, ...

%C Records are obtained for A061742 U A228593. - _David A. Corneth_, Feb 06 2019

%e Divisors of 198 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198. Here the set is 1, 2, 3, 9, 11 because 2*3 = 6, 2*9 = 18, 2*11 = 22, 3*11 = 33, 6*11 = 66, 9*11 = 99, 2*99 = 198. Then a(198) = 5.
