COMMENT

a(1) = 1, a(2)=2, define S(k) = sum of all the terms other than a(k) k <n. a(n) = Sum S(k), k = 1 to n-1.

FORMULA

a(n) = (n-2)* {Sum (a(i)): (i = 1 to (n-1))}.

E.g.f.: 3*(x-2)*ln(1-x)-5*x+x^2. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), May 06 2003

SUM(a(k): 1<=k<=n) = A052560(n-1); for n>2: a(n) = A052673(n-2). - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Apr 14 2007

EXAMPLE

a(4) = {a(1) +a(2)} +{a(1) +a(3)} + {a(2) +a(3)}= 12.

MAPLE

a := proc(n) option remember: if n=1 then RETURN(1) fi: if n=2 then RETURN(2) fi: 3*(n-2)*(n-2)! end: for n from 1 to 40 do printf(`%d, `, a(n)) od:
