Magma

m:=21; T:=[ [ Factorial(k)*StirlingFirst(j, k): k in [1..j] ]: j in [1..m] ]; [ &+[ T[j-k+1][k]: k in [1..(j+1) div 2] ]: j in [1..m] ]; // Klaus Brockhaus, Jun 03 2007

Mathematica

m = 21; t[j_, k_] := k!*StirlingS1[j, k]; Total /@ Table[ t[j-k+1, k], {j, 1, m}, {k, 1, Quotient[j+1, 2]}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Aug 13 2012, translated from Klaus Brockhaus's Magma program *)

Formula

E.g.f. for k-th column (k>=1): log(1+x)^k. For further formulas see the references.
