A181293 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of 2-compositions of n having k 0's (0<=k<=n) A 2-composition of n is a nonnegative matrix with two rows, such that each column has at least one nonzero entry and whose entries sum up to n.

Comments

The sum of entries in row n is A003480(n).

Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A181294(n).

Examples

			T(2,0)=1, T(2,1)=2, T(2,2)=4 because the 2-compositions of 2, written as (top row/bottom row), are (1/1), (0/2), (2/0), (1,0/0,1), (0,1/1,0), (1,1/0,0), (0,0/1,1).

Programs

Maple

G := (1-z)^2/(1-2*z-2*t*z+2*t*z^2): Gser := simplify(series(G, z = 0, 14)): for n from 0 to 10 do P[n] := sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n from 0 to 10 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, k), k = 0 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form

Formula

G.f.: G(t,z) = (1-z)^2/(1-2*z-2*t*z+2*t*z^2).

G.f. of column k is 2^k*z^k*(1-z)^{k+2}/(1-2*z)^{k+1} (we have a Riordan array).
