COMMENT

Number of falls s_k > s_{k+1} in a set partition {s_1, ..., s_n} of {1, ..., n}, where s_i is the subset containing i, s(1) = 1, and s(i) <= 1 + max of previous s(j)'s.

Note that the number of equalities at any index is B(n-1), where B(n) are the Bell numbers. Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jun 08 2006

EXAMPLE
