COMMENT

A member of the family of sequences defined by a(n) = sum_{i=1..n}[i*c(1)*..*c(r)]^(i-1); c(i) integers. Here c(1)=1. - Ctibor O. ZIZKA (ctibor.zizka(AT)seznam.cz), Feb 23 2008

FORMULA

a(n) = sum k=1, ..n k^(k-1)

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 12 because the matrix is: 1,1,1 1,2,4 1,3,9 and the trace is 1+2+9 = 12

1 = 1^0; 3 = 1^0 + 2^1; 12 = 1^0 + 2^1 + 3^2; 76 = 1^0 + 2^1 + 3^2 + 4^3
