%N A111111 Number of simple permutations of degree n.
%C A111111 A permutation is simple if the only intervals that are fixed are the
singletons and [1..n].
%C A111111 For example, the permutation
%C A111111 1234567
%C A111111 2647513
%C A111111 is not simple since it maps [2..5] onto [4..7].
%C A111111 In other words, a permutation [1 ... n] -> [p_1 p_2 ... p_n] is simple
if there is no string of consecutive numbers [i_1 ... i_k] which
is mapped onto a string of consecutive numbers [p_i_1 ... p_i_k]
except for the strings of length k = 1 or n.
