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.

A208509 Triangle of coefficients of polynomials v(n,x) jointly generated with A208508; see the Formula section.

Formula

u(n,x) = u(n-1,x) + x*v(n-1,x), v(n,x) = u(n-1,x) + v(n-1,x) + 1, with u(1,x)=1, v(1,x)=1.
Conjecture: T(n,k) = binomial(n-1,2*k+1) + binomial(n,2*k+1). - Knud Werner, Jan 11 2022
