COMMENTS
a(c^n) for some constant c can be expressed as a linear recurrence with constant coefficients.
FORMULA
a(n) = (n^2 - 1 - A374968(n))/6.
a(2^n) = A006095(n).
a(3^n) has the ordinary generating function: x*(1 - 2*x + 5*x^2 + 12*x^3)/(1 - 13*x + 36*x^2 + 12*x^3 - 117*x^4 + 81*x^5).
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = (n^2-1)/6-sum(k=1, n, (k*(k+1)/2)%n)/n+((n+1)%2)/2
