A333287 Triangle read by rows: consider a figure made up of a row of n congruent rectangles and the diagonals of all visible rectangles; T(n,k) (1 <= k <= n) is the number of quadrilateral regions in the k-th rectangle.

Comments

This was originally based on the data in Jinyuan Wang's A324042, and then extended by Lars Blomberg.

It would be nice to have a formula for these entries. It is easy to see that the first column is 2n-3 for n>1.
