If you take the powers of a finite function you generate a lollipop graph. This table organizes the lollipops by cycle size. The table organized by total lollipop size with the tail included is A225725.
Warning: For T(n,k) after the sixth row there are zero entries and k can be greater than n: T(7,k) = |{1=>262144, 2=>292383, 3=>145320, 4=>71610, 5=>24192, 6=>26250, 7=>720, 8=>0, 9=>0, 10=>504, 11=>0, 12=>420}|.

Examples

			T(1,1) = |{[0]}|, T(2,1) = |{[0,0],[0,1],[1,1]}|, T(2,2) = |{[0,1]}|.

Comments

The number of functions in a finite set {1,..,n} for which the sequence of composition powers ends in a fixed point gave terms of the sequence A000272(n-1)=(n+1)^(n-1).
This is to be seen as a conjecture, and the sequence ending with a length 2 cycle does not seem to have such an easy expression.

Examples

			Any transposition (or disjoint combination) is one element to be counted.
When n=2, there is only one, and a(2)=1. When n=3, there are only 3 transpositions, but there are other 6 elements, for instance
f:{1,2,3}->{2,1,1} gives fof:{1,2,3}->{1,2,2} and fofof=f (cycle 2),
(the others are similar), thus giving a(3)=9.
