FORMULA
a(n) = (-1)^(n-1) * Sum_{k=0..n} (2*k-1)^(k-1) * Stirling1(n,k).
E.g.f. A(x) = -Sum_{k>=0} (2*k-1)^(k-1) * (log(1-x))^k / k!.
E.g.f.: A(x) = ( -2*log(1-x)/LambertW(-2*log(1-x)) )^(1/2).
a(n) ~ -(-1)^n * n^(n-1) / (sqrt(2) * exp(n + exp(-1)/4) * (-1 + exp(exp(-1)/2))^(n - 1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 24 2021
