%C The defining formula simultaneously represents the numerators of the unsigned divided Bernoulli numbers and the unsigned Euler secant numbers. Some authors consider the divided Bernoulli numbers B(n)/n to be more fundamental than B(n). For instance, B(n)/n is a p-integer for all primes p for which p - 1 does not divide n (see Ireland and Rosen).
