[seqfan] Re: A question on sequence A174407

[José Hdz. Stgo.]

I understand the definition of the sequence. My main concern is about the
assertion in the COMMENT. It reads:


a(n) is the number of x with 0 < x < p and g^x == x (mod p)

With the case of p=17 all I am implying is that this assertion should be
amended.

Best regards,

José Hdz. Stgo.
