A079409 Array T(m,n) (m>=0, n>=0) read by antidiagonals: T(0, 0) = 1, T(0, n) = 0 if n > 0, T(m, n) = T(m-1, n - T(m-1, n)) + T(m-1, n - T(m-1, n-1)) if m > 0. 1

%N Array T(m,n) (m>=0, n>=0) read by antidiagonals: T(0, 0) = 1, T(0, n) = 0 if n > 0, T(m, n) = T(m-1, n - T(m-1, n)) + T(m-1, n - T(m-1, n-1)) if m > 0.

%C This two-dimensional array is to Pascal's triangle as the Hofstadter Q-sequence A005185 is to Fibonacci's sequence.

%C Unlike the Hofstadter Q-sequence, it is very regular and admits a simple closed form: T(m, n) = 0 if n > m, T(m, n) = 1 if n <= m and m - n is even, T(m, n) = n + 1 if n <= m and m - n is odd.

%e For 0 <= m <= 6 and 0 <= n <= 6, the array looks like:

%e 1,0,0,0,0,0,0

%e 1,1,0,0,0,0,0

%e 1,2,1,0,0,0,0

%e 1,1,3,1,0,0,0

%e 1,2,1,4,1,0,0

%e 1,1,3,1,5,1,0

%e 1,2,1,4,1,6,1

%Y Cf. A004001, A005185, A007318, A052553, A079408.
