For n >= 1, a(n) = the number of significant digits in n's factorial base representation (A007623).
After zero, which occurs once, each n occurs A001563(n) times.
Number of iterations (...(f_4(f_3(f_2(n))))...) such that the result is < 1, where f_j(x):=x/j. - Hieronymus Fischer, Apr 30 2012
For n > 0: a(n) = length of row n in table A108731. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 05 2014

Examples

			a(4) = 2 because 2! <= 4 < 3!.

Used for computing A107346.
Term a(n) can be obtained by adding one to each digit of factorial base representation of n (A007623(n)) and then reinterpreting it as a kind of pseudo-factorial base representation, ignoring the fact that now some of the digits might be over the maximum allowed in that position. Please see the example section. - Antti Karttunen, Nov 29 2013

Examples

			1 has a factorial base representation A007623(1) = '1', as 1 = 1*1!. Incrementing the digit 1 with 1, we get 2*1! = 2, thus a(1) = 2. (Note that although '2' is not a valid factorial base representation, it doesn't matter here.)
2 has a factorial base representation '10', as 2 = 1*2! + 0*1!. Incrementing the digits by one, we get 2*2! + 1*1! = 5, thus a(2) = 5.
3 has a factorial base representation '11', as 3 = 1*2! + 1*1!. Incrementing the digits by one, we get 2*2! + 2*1! = 6, thus a(3) = 6.
