COMMENT
|
Successive differences are factorials, or (n+1)-th successive difference divided by (n)-th successive difference = n. i.e. {a(n+2)-a(n+1)}/{a(n+1)-a(n)} = n. - Amarnath Murthy and Meenakshi Srikanth (amarnath_murthy(AT)yahoo.com), Jun 14 2003

FORMULA
|
a(n) =1+sum_{0<=i<=n-2} i! =2*A014288(n-1)+1 =A007489(n-2)+2 (n>1). - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Oct 23 2002 ; Corrected by M. F. Hasler, Dec 16 2007
a(n) = 1+!(n-1) = 1+A003422(n-1) ; a(n+1)=a(n)+(n-1)! - M. F. Hasler, Dec 16 2007
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(6) = 35, a(5)= 11 hence a(7) = 6*35 - 5*11 = 155.
