## Abstract Let __n__ > 1 be an integer and let __a__~2~,__a__~3~,…,__a__~__n__~ be nonnegative integers such that $\sum\_{i=2}^{n} a\_i=2^{n-1} - 1$. Then $K\_{2^n}$ can be factored into $a\_2 C\_{2^2}$‐factors, $a\_3 C\_{2^3}$‐factors,…,$a\_n C\_{2^n}$‐factors, plus a 1‐factor. © 2002 Wiley Perio
