Comments

Or, equivalently, the number of factorials k!, 0<=k<=n, for which k! and n! have no common A050376-factors in their factorizations over distinct terms of A050376.

Note that 1 (=0!=1!) corresponds to an empty subset of A050376.

Examples

			0!=1, 1!=1; further we have the following factorizations of k! over distinct terms of A050376 for k = 2,3,4,5,6:
2!=2, 3!=2*3, 4!=2*3*4, 5!=2*3*4*5, 6!=5*9*16. Thus, in the sense of the factorizations being considered, 6! is relatively prime to 0!,1!,2!,3!, and 4!. So a(6)=5.
