COMMENTS
Variation of Boustrophedon transform applied to all-1's sequence. Fill an array by diagonals in alternating directions - 'up' and 'down'. The first element of each diagonal is 1. When 'going up', add to the previous element the elements of the row the new element is in. When 'going down', add to the previous element the elements of the column the new element is in. The final element of the n-th diagonal is a(n).
