%N a(n) = |{m : multiplicative order of 7 mod m=n}|.
%C The multiplicative order of a mod m, gcd(a,m)=1, is the smallest natural number d for which a^d = 1 (mod m).
%C a(n) = number of orders of degree n monic irreducible polynomials over GF(7).
%C Also, number of primitive factors of 7^n - 1 (cf. A218358). - _Max Alekseyev_, May 03 2022
