Examples

			The start of the sequence as triangle array read by rows:
  1;
  3,2;
  1,2,1;
  5,4,3,4;
  3,2,1,2,1;
  7,6,5,6,5,4;
  3,4,3,2,1,2,1;
  . . .
The start of the sequence as array read by rows, the length of row r is 4*r-3.
First 2*r-2 numbers are from the row number 2*r-2 of above triangle array.
Last  2*r-1 numbers are from the row number 2*r-1 of above triangle array.
  1;
  3,2,1,2,1;
  5,4,3,4,3,2,1,2,1;
  7,6,5,6,5,4,3,4,3,2,1,2,1;
  ...
Row number r is 2*r-1, 2*r-2, 2*r-3, 2*r-2, {row number r-1}.
