%N A018892 Number of ways to write 1/n as a sum of exactly 2 unit fractions.
%C A018892 a(n) =(tau(n^2)+1)/2. Number of elements in the set {(x,y): x|n, y|n,
x<=y, GCD(x,y)=1}. Number of divisors of n^2 less than or equal to
n. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), May 03 2002

%C A018892 Except for the initial term, each entry is at least equal to 2 because
of the identities 1/n=1/2n + 1/2n=1/(n+1) + 1/n*(n+1). - Lekraj Beedassy
