%N A005225 Number of permutations of length n with equal cycles.
%C A005225 a(n)=(n-1)!+1 iff n is a prime.

%F A005225 a(n) = n!*sum(((n/k)!*k^(n/k))^(-1)) where sum is over all divisors k 
               of n. Exponential generating function [for a(1) through a(n)]= sum(exp(t^k/
               k), k=1..n).
%e A005225 For example, a(4)=10 since, of the 24 permutations of length 4, there 
               are 6 permutations with consist of a single 4-cycle, 3 permutations 
               that consist of two 2-cycles and 1 permutation with four 1-cycles. 
               Also, a(7)=721 since there are 720 permutations with a single cycle 
               of length 7 and 1 permutation with seven 1-cycles.
