%N A059062 Card-matching numbers (Dinner-Diner matching numbers).
%C A059062 This is a triangle of card matching numbers. A deck has n kinds of cards, 5 of each kind. The deck is shuffled and dealt in to n hands with 5 cards each. A match occurs for every card in the j-th hand of kind j. Triangle T(n,k) is the number of ways of achieving exactly k matches (k=0..5n). The probability of exactly k matches is T(n,k)/((5n)!/(5!)^n).

%F A059062 G.f.: sum(coeff(R(x, n, k), x, j)*(t-1)^j*(n*k-j)!, j=0..n*k) where n is the number of kinds of cards, k is the number of cards of each kind (here k is 5) and R(x, n, k) is the rook polynomial given by R(x, n, k)=(k!^2*sum(x^j/((k-j)!^2*j!))^n (see Stanley or Riordan). coeff(R(x, n, k), x, j) indicates the j-th coefficient on x of the rook polynomial.
