Examples
Triangle begins: 1; 0, 2; 0, 0, 3; 1, 0, 1, 4; 2, 0, 0, 2, 5; 3, 2, 0, 2, 3, 6; 4, 4, 0, 0, 4, 4, 7; 5, 6, 3, 0, 3, 6, 5, 8; 7, 8, 7, 0, 1, 6, 8, 6, 9; 9, 10, 11, 4, 0, 6, 9, 10, 7, 10; 13, 12, 15, 10, 0, 2, 11, 12, 12, 8, 11; Figure 1 below shows the Ferrers diagram of the partition of 24: [7, 6, 3, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1]. Figure 2 shows the right-angles diagram of the same partition. Note that in this last diagram we can see the size of the three right angles as follows: the first right angle has size 14 because it contains 14 square cells, the second right angle has size 8 and the third right angle has size 2. . .

For n = 8 the partitions of 8 and their respective right-angles diagrams are as follows: . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1| |8 2| _|8 3| _ _|8 4| _ _ _|8 5| _ _ _ _|8 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1| | 1|_| 1| | 1| | 1| | 1|_| 1| | 1| | 1|_| 1| | 1|_| 1|_| _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6| _ _ _ _ _|8 7| _ _ _ _ _ _|8 8|_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _|8 1| | 1|_| 1|_| . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2| _|7 3| _ _|7 4| _ _ _|7 5| _ _ _ _|7 6| _ _ _ _ _|7 2| |_|1 2| |_| 1 2| |_| 1 2| |_| 1 2|_|_| 1 1| | 1| | 1| | 1|_| 1| | 1| | 1|_| 1| | 1|_| 1|_| . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2| _|6 3| _ _|6 3| _ _|6 4| _ _ _|6 4| _ _ _|6 5| _ _ _ _|6 2| | |2 2| | | 2 3| |_ _|2 2| | | 2 3| |_ _| 2 3|_|_ _| 2 2| |_| 2| |_| 1| | 2|_|_| 1|_| 1| | 1|_| 1|_| 1|_| . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2| _|5 3| _ _|5 4| _ _ _|5 2| | |3 3| | _|3 4|_|_ _ _|3 2| | | 2|_|_| 2|_|_| . There are 5 right angles of size 1, so T(8,1) = 5. There are 6 right angles of size 2, so T(8,2) = 6. There are 3 right angles of size 3, so T(8,3) = 3. There are no right angle of size 4, so T(8,4) = 0. There are 3 right angles of size 5, so T(8,5) = 3. There are 6 right angles of size 6, so T(8,6) = 6. There are 5 right angles of size 7, so T(8,7) = 5. There are 8 right angles of size 8, so T(8,8) = 8. Hence the 8th row of triangle is [5, 6, 3, 0, 3, 6, 5, 8]. Note that the sum of the terms after the last zero is 3 + 6 + 5 + 8 = 22, equaling A000041(8) = 22, the number of partitions of 8.
