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.

Formula

The growth series for D_k is the polynomial f(k)*Product_{i=1..k-1} f(2*i), where f(m) = (1-x^m)/(1-x) [Corrected by N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 07 2021]. This is a row of the triangle in A162206.
