%N A014117 Numbers n such that m^(n+1) = m mod n holds for all m.
%C A014117 "Somebody incorrectly remembered Fermat's little theorem as saying that 
               the congruence a^{n+1} = a (mod n) holds for all a if n is prime" 
               (Zagier). The sequence gives the set of integers n for which this 
               property is in fact true.
%C A014117 If i = j (mod n), then m^i = m^j (mod n) for all m. The latter congruence 
               generally holds for any (m, n)=1 with i = j (mod k), k being the 
               order of m modulo n, i.e. the least power k for which m^k = 1 (mod 
               n). - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Jul 04 2002
