Starting with 1, which encodes 0-polynomial, each integer m encodes (or "matches") a polynomial p(m,x) with nonnegative integer coefficients determined by the prime factorization of m. Write m = prime(1)^e(1) * prime(2)^e(2) * ... * prime(k)^e(k); then p(m,x) = e(1) + e(2)x + e(3)x^2 + ... + e(k)x^k.
Identities:
p(m*n,x) = p(m,x) + p(n,x),
p(m*n,x) = p(gcd(m,n),x) + p(lcm(m,n),x),
p(m+n,x) = p(gcd(m,n),x) + p((m+n)/gcd(m,n),x), so that if A003057 is read as a square matrix, then
p(A003057,x) = p(A003989,x) + p(A106448,x).
Apart from powers of 3, all terms are even. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb 11 2012
Contains 2*p^m and p*2^m if p is an odd prime and m is in A052485. - Robert Israel, Oct 09 2016

Examples

			Polynomials having nonnegative integer coefficients are matched to the positive integers as follows:
   m    p(m,x)    irreducible
  ---------------------------
   1    0         no
   2    1         no
   3    x         yes
   4    2         no
   5    x^2       no
   6    1+x       yes
   7    x^3       no
   8    3         no
   9    2x        yes
  10    1+x^2     yes

The factorization is over the ring of polynomials having integer coefficients.
From Robert Israel, Oct 09 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 0 iff n is a power of 2.
a(n) <= A061395(n)-1 for n > 1. (End)

Examples

			From _Antti Karttunen_, Oct 09 2016: (Start)
For n = 1, the corresponding polynomial is zero-polynomial, thus a(1) = 0.
For n = 2, the corresponding polynomial is constant 1, thus a(2) = 0.
For n = 3 = prime(2), the corresponding polynomial is x, thus a(3) = 1.
For n = 11 = prime(5), the corresponding polynomial is x^4 which factorizes as (x)(x)(x)(x), thus a(11) = 1. (Only distinct factors are counted by this sequence).
For n = 14 = prime(4) * prime(1), the corresponding polynomial is x^3 + 1, which factorizes as (x + 1)(x^2 - x + 1), thus a(14) = 2.
For n = 33 = prime(5) * prime(2), the corresponding polynomial is x^4 + x, which factorizes as x(x+1)(x^2 - x + 1), thus a(33) = 3.
For n = 90 = prime(3) * prime(2)^2 * prime(1), the corresponding polynomial is x^2 + 2x + 1, which factorizes as (x + 1)^2, thus a(90) = 1.
For n = 93 = prime(11) * prime(2), the corresponding polynomial is x^10 + x, which factorizes as x(x+1)(x^2 - x + 1)(x^6 - x^3 + 1), thus a(93) = 4.
For n = 177 = prime(17) * prime(2), the corresponding polynomial is x^16 + x, which factorizes as x(x + 1)(x^2 - x + 1)(x^4 - x^3 + x^2 - x + 1)(x^8 + x^7 - x^5 - x^4 - x^3 + x + 1), thus a(177) = 5.
