FORMULA
a(n) >= A303709(n). - Antti Karttunen, Dec 06 2018
EXAMPLE
The a(64) = 4 periodic factorizations are (2*2*2*2*2*2), (2*2*4*4), (4*4*4), (8*8).
The a(144) = 4 periodic factorizations are (2*2*2*2*3*3), (2*2*6*6), (3*3*4*4), (12*12).
The a(256) = 5 periodic factorizations are (2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2), (2*2*2*2*4*4), (2*2*8*8), (4*4*4*4), (16*16).
The a(576) = 7 periodic factorizations are (2*2*2*2*2*2*3*3), (2*2*2*2*6*6), (2*2*3*3*4*4), (2*2*12*12), (3*3*8*8), (4*4*6*6), (24*24).
