This describes how many toothpicks are added at each step (as to form the upper bar of a T) at all "exposed" endpoints, starting from an initial configuration with a vertical toothpick whose lower endpoint rests on the top of the conic region { (x,y): y < -|x| } into which the toothpicks may not extend. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 30 2013

Examples

			From _Omar E. Pol_, Jan 30 2013 (Start):
If written as an irregular triangle in which rows 0..2 have length 1, it appears that row j has length 2^(j-3), if j >= 3.

The initial half-tookpick makes an angle of 90 degrees w.r.t. the wedge's direction. This breaks the symmetry and explains the changing parity of the terms. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 29 2013

Examples

			From _M. F. Hasler_, Jan 29 2013: (Start)
The first steps are illustrated as follows, where two vertical "|" or three horizontal "_" correspond to one single full toothpick:
:                                ___ ___  |___ ___|
:                 ___    |___|    |___|   | |___| |
:   _      |_      |_    | |_|    | |_|   | | |_|
:   /\     |/\     |/\     |/\   ¯¯¯|/\   |¯¯¯|/\
:  /  \    /  \    /  \    /  \     /  \      /  \
