This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Formula

a(n) = (n-1)! * Sum_{k=1..n} k! * a(n-k) / (n-k)! for n>0 with a(0)=1.
E.g.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) A'(x)/A(x) = Sum_{k>=0} (n+1)! * x^n.
(2) A(x) = exp(x + x^2 * A'(x)/A(x)).
Let F(x) = Sum_{n>=0} n! * x^n, then
(3) [x^n] A(x)^n * (2 - F(x)) = 0 for n > 0,
(4) [x^n] A(x) * (n + 1 - F(x)) = 0 for n > 0. - Paul D. Hanna, May 26 2018
