EXAMPLE
Triangle begins:
2,
2, 4,
2, 12, 10,
2, 16, 70, 32,
2, 20, 134, 442, 122,
2, 24, 198, 1164, 3108, 544,
2, 28, 274, 2048, 10982, 24216, 2770,
2, 32, 362, 3204, 22468, 112354, 208586, 15872, ...
The row "2, 12, 10" for example means that there are two permutations of [1..4] in which the longest run up or down has length 4, 12 in which the longest run has length 3, and 10 in which the longest run has length 2.
The following table, computed by Sean A. Irvine, May 02, 2012, gives an extended version of the triangle, oriented the right way round (cf. A211318), and corrects errors in David Kendall and Barton:
n l=0, l=1, l=2, l=3, etc.
