%C A056242 T(n,k) is also the number of unimodal length-n sequences covering an initial interval of positive integers with maximum part k, where a sequence of integers is unimodal if it is the concatenation of a weakly increasing and a weakly decreasing sequence. For example, the sequences counted by row n = 4 are:
%C A056242 (1111) (1112) (1123) (1234)
