COMMENT

17^a(n) is highest power of 17 dividing (17^n)!.

FORMULA

a(n)= sum(17^k, k=0..n-1) = (17^n-1)/16.

G.f.: x/((1-17*x)*(1-x))= (1/(1-17*x) - 1/(1-x))/16.

For analogues with primes 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, ... see: A000225, A003462, A003463, A023000, A016123, A091030, ...

a(n)=17*a(n-1)+1 (with a(1)=1) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Oct 29 2009]

EXAMPLE

For n=2, a(2)=17*1+1=18; n=3, a(3)=17*18+1=307; n=4, a(4)=17*307+1=5220 [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Oct 29 2009]
