%N A059024 Triangle of Stirling numbers of order 5.
%C A059024 The number of partitions of the set N, |N|=n, into k blocks, all of cardinality greater than or equal to 5. This is the 5-associated Stirling number of the second kind.
%C A059024 This is entered as a triangular array. The entries S_5(n,k) are zero for 5k>n, so these values are omitted. Initial entry in sequence is S_5(5,1).
%C A059024 Rows are of lengths 1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,...
