Obtained via an iterative method. Each new class added to an existing diagram must create at least a new zone, and at most a number of new zones equal to the existing zones.

			For n=3 (3 different classes) there are 29 possible Euler diagrams that do not reduce to smaller cases. Of these 11 are in fact repetitions and need to be eliminated to perfect the upper bound.

This sequence is linked to A007018 by the binomial transform: A007018(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*a(k).

a(n) = Sum_{k>=1} e(n,k), where k is the number of zones, and the elements e(n,k) are defined recursively as: e(0,1) = 1; e(n,k) = Sum_{c=1..k-1} binomial(c,k-c)*e(n-1,c).

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k)*binomial(n,k)*A007018(k). - Jason Yuen, Mar 01 2025
