FORMULA

Table[ (-1)^(r+c+1) binomial[Floor[(r+c)/2], Floor[(r-c)/2]] Floor[(r+c+1)/2]! / Floor[(r-c+1)/2]!, {r, 0, 7}, {c, 0, r}]

a[0] := -1; a[1] := 1-x; a[n_] := a[n]= n x a[n-1] + a[n-2] (matches sequence except for a[0]).

EXAMPLE

1, 1 - x, -1 + 2*x - 2*x^2, 1 - 4*x + 6*x^2 - 6*x^3, ...

MATHEMATICA

CoefficientList[ #, x ]&/@Numerator[ FoldList[ (1/#1-x#2)&, 1, Range[ 12 ] ]//Together ]

FoldList[(1/#1-x#2)&, 1, Range[4] ]//Together (a simpler version, which shows the rational functions)

CROSSREFS

Diagonals give A000142, A001563, A001286, A001809, A001754, A001810, A001755, A001811, A001777. Except for first term, row sums give negative of A058307.

Row sums of positive entries give A001053, those of negative entries give -1*A001040.

Sequence in context: A191490 A061598 A071946 * A096747 A167622 A084606
