Here a ring means (R,+,*): (R,+) is an abelian group, * is associative, a*(b+c) = a*b + a*c, (a+b)*c = a*c + b*c. Need not contain "1", * need not be commutative.

A ring without 1 is still a ring, although sometimes called a rng, or a non-unital ring, or a pseudo-ring (see Wikipedia links).
These are rings in which multiplication has no unit, and where there is at least one pair of non-commuting elements.
a(n)=0 if and only if n is squarefree.

			For n=4, there are 11 rings of order 4, 2 of which are without 1 and non-commutative, so a(4)= 2. Note that for these 2 rings, the abelian group under addition is the commutative Klein group Z/2Z + Z/2Z. These two rings are the last two rings described in the link _Greg Dresden_ in reference: Ring 22.NC.1 and Ring 22.NC.2.

A ring without 1 is still a ring, but sometimes it is called a rng, or a non-unital ring, or a pseudo-ring (see Wikipedia links).

			a(1) = 0 because the only ring with 1 element is the zero ring with the element 0, and for this ring, 0 and 1 coincide.
a(2) = 1, and for this corresponding ring with elements {0,a}, the multiplication that is defined by: 0*0 = 0*a = a*0 = a*a = 0 is commutative, also this ring is without unit, hence a(2) = 1; the Matrix ring {0,a} with coefficients from Z/2Z:
          (0 0)           (0 0)
      0 = (0 0)       a = (1 0)  is such an example.
For n=8, there are 52 rings of order 8, 24 of which are commutative rings without 1, so a(8) = 24.

Number of commutative rings: A127707 (with 1 containing n elements), this sequence (without 1 containing n elements), A037289 (with n elements).

Cf. A127708, A342376, A209401, A037291, A342377, A027623, A037234.

a(n) = A037289(n) - A127707(n).
