a(n) is the number of non-divisors of n in 1..n. - Jaroslav Krizek, Nov 14 2009
Also equal to the number of partitions p of n such that max(p)-min(p) = 1. The number of partitions of n with max(p)-min(p) <= 1 is n; there is one with k parts for each 1 <= k <= n. max(p)-min(p) = 0 iff k divides n, leaving n-d(n) with a difference of 1. It is easiest to see this by looking at fixed k with increasing n: for k=3, starting with n=3 the partitions are [1,1,1], [2,1,1], [2,2,1], [2,2,2], [3,2,2], etc. - Giovanni Resta, Feb 06 2006 and Franklin T.

EXAMPLE
a(7) = 5; the 5 non-divisors of 7 in 1..7 are 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
The 5 partitions of 7 with max(p) - min(p) = 1 are [4,3], [3,2,2], [2,2,2,1], [2,2,1,1,1] and [2,1,1,1,1,1]. - Emeric Deutsch, Mar 01 2006
