Comments

Square array A(n,k), where n = row, k = column, read by antidiagonals: A(1,1), A(1,2), A(2,1), A(1,3), A(2,2), A(3,1), ... (transpose of array A060175).

A(n,k) is the (p_n)-adic valuation of k, where p_n is the n-th prime, A000040(n).

Each row is effectively a ruler function, s, with s(1) = 0. - Peter Munn, Apr 30 2022

Examples

			The top-left corner of the array:
  0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 3, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 4, ...
  0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, ...
  0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, ...
  0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, ...
  0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
  0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...
  ...
A(1,8) = 3, because 2^3 is the largest power of 2 (= p_1 = A000040(1)) that divides 8.
a(2,9) = 2, because 3^2 is the largest power of 3 (= p_2) that divides 9.
a(3,15) = 1, because 5^1 is the largest power of 5 (= p_3) that divides 15.
