Examples
From _Omar E. Pol_, Feb 23 2015: (Start) Written as an irregular triangle in which the row lengths are the terms of A011782, the sequence begins: 1; 4; 4,12; 4,12,16,32; 4,12,16,32,16,36,60,80; 4,12,16,32,16,36,60,80,16,36,60,84,60,112,208,192; 4,12,16,32,16,36,60,80,16,36,60,84,60,112,208,192,16,36,60,84,60,112,208,196,60,112,208,224,212,364,672,448; ... It appears that right border gives the positive terms of A001787. It appears that row sums give A000302. (End)
