Also, the number of unitary prime divisors of n!. A prime divisor of n is unitary iff its exponent is 1 in the prime power factorization of n. In general, gcd(p, n/p) = 1 or p. Here we count the cases when gcd(p, n/p) = 1.
A unitary prime divisor of n! is >= n/2, hence their number is pi(n) - pi(n/2). - Peter Luschny, Mar 13 2011

From Robert G. Wilson v, Mar 20 2017: (Start)
First occurrence of k is at n = A080359(k).
The last occurrence of k is at n = A080360(k).
The number of times k appears is A080362(k). (End)
Lev Schnirelmann proved that for every n, a(n) > (1/log_2(n))*(n/3 - 4*sqrt(n)) - 1 - (3/2)*log_2(n). - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Nov 03 2017

FORMULA
a(n) = A000720(n) - A056172(n). - Robert G. Wilson v, Apr 09 2017
a(n) = A056169(n!). - Amiram Eldar, Jul 24 2024
EXAMPLE
10! = 2^8 * 3^2 * 5^2 * 7. The only unitary prime divisor is 7, so a(10) = 1.
