cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A092582 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations p of [n] having length of first run equal to k.

Row sums are the factorial numbers (A000142). First column is A001710.
T(n,k) = number of permutations of [n] in which 1,2,...,k is a subsequence but 1,2,...,k,k+1 is not. Example: T(4,2)=8 because 1324, 1342, 1432, 4132, 3124, 3142, 3412 and 4312, are the only permutations of [4] in which 12 is a subsequence but 123 is not. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 12 2004
T(n,k) is the number of deco polyominoes of height n with k cells in the last column. (A deco polyomino is a directed column-convex polyomino in which the height, measured along the diagonal, is attained only in the last column). - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 06 2005

Adding columns 2,4,6,... one obtains the derangement numbers 0,1,2,9,44,... (A000166). See the Bona reference (p. 118, Exercises 41,42). - Emeric Deutsch, Feb 23 2008

Differences in the columns of A173333 which counts the n-permutations with an initial ascending run of length at least k. - Geoffrey Critzer, Jun 18 2017
The triangle with each row reversed is A130477. - Michael Somos, Jun 25 2017

Examples

			T(4,3) = 3 because 1243, 1342 and 2341 are the only permutations of [4] having length of first run equal to 3.
