%N Array T(m,n) read by antidiagonals: number of domino tilings (or dimer tilings) of the m X n grid (or m X n rectangle), for m>=1, n>=1.
%C There are many versions of this array (or triangle) in the OEIS. This is the main entry, which ideally collects together all the references to the literature and to other versions in the OEIS. But see A004003 for further information. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 14 2015
