OEIS A393170

Paul D. Hanna’s entry fixes a(0) = 1 and defines the remaining coefficients of the integer formal power series by requiring the degree-n coefficient of 1/(A(x)-n*x) to vanish for every positive n. It states that the positive-index coefficients are odd exactly at powers of two. The module’s h0 : constantCoeff A = 1 records this stated normalization; it is not an additional restriction on the sequence described by the entry.
