Examples
See example in A260735. This sequence gives the number of those irreducible factors (in ring GF(2)[X], not necessarily all primes in Z) that are multiplied together (in ordinary way) to get the next term of A260735. For example, a(0) = 5 (for 3 * 3 * 7 * 7 * 7), a(1) = 5 (for 3 * 7 * 7 * 13 * 13).
