OEIS A00001: Number of Groups

A friendly, layperson-friendly tour of what a 'group' is and what A00001 counts—the number of distinct groups of order n up to isomorphism. We’ll explain why prime orders are simple while composite orders explode in possibilities, connect the idea to real-world topics like cryptography, physics, and even music, and peek at some of the research behind the sequence—prime-power cases, McHale’s comparison of groups and rings, and Lopes’s conjectured multiplicative behavior.
