%N Number of unoriented colorings of the 30 edges of a regular dodecahedron or icosahedron using n or fewer colors.
%C Each chiral pair is counted as one when enumerating unoriented arrangements. The Schläfli symbols for the regular icosahedron and regular dodecahedron are {3,5} and {5,3} respectively. They are mutually dual.
