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.

Formula

Row n is made of coefficients of: (1 + 2*x - x^2)^n. - Thomas Baruchel, Jan 15 2015
From Franck Maminirina Ramaharo, Oct 13 2018: (Start)
G.f.: 1/(1 - (1 + 2*x - x^2)*y).
E.g.f.: exp((1 + 2*x - x^2)*y).
T(n,1) = A005843(n).
T(n,2) = A014107(n).
T(n,n) = A098335(n). (End)
