%N Numerator of (Sum_{k=1..n} k) / (Product_{k=1..n} k).

%C If the offset is set to 2 then [a(n) <> 1] is the indicator function of the odd primes ([] Iverson bracket). [_Peter Luschny_, Jul 05 2009]

%F a(n) = A000217(n) / A069268(n).

%F a(n) = A089026(n+1) for n>1.

%F Also for n>1, a(n) is a numerator of determinant of (n-1) X (n-1) matrix with M(i,j) = (i+2)/(i+1) if i=j, otherwise 1. E.g., a(2) = Numerator[Det[{{3/2}}]] = Numerator[3/2] = 3. a(3) = Numerator[Det[{{3/2,1},{1,4/3}}]] = Numerator[1/1] = 1. a(4) = Numerator[Det[{{3/2,1,1},{1,4/3,1},{1,1,5/4}}]] = Numerator[5/12] = 5. - _Alexander Adamchuk_, May 26 2006

%F a(n) = gcd(n*(n+1)/2, n!+1). [_Jaume Oliver Lafont_, Jan 23 2009]

%e For n=5, (1+2+3+4+5)/(1*2*3*4*5) = 15/120 = 1/8, so a(5) = 1. For n=6, (1+2+3+4+5+6)/(1*2*3*4*5*6) = 21/720 = 7/240, so a(6) = 7. - _Michael B. Porter_, Jul 02 2016
