FORMULA
a(n) = A261765(n,n) - A261765(n,n-1) for n>0, a(0)=1.
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 8 because there are 8 partial derangements on {1,2,3} with at least one orbit of size 3 namely: (1,2) --> (2,3), (1,2) --> (3,1), (1,3) --> (2,1), (1,3) --> (3,2), (2,3) --> (3,1), (2,3) --> (1,2), (1,2,3) --> (2,3,1), (1,2,3) --> (3,1,2).
