%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is number of noncrossing trees with n edges and having k branches.

%C Mirror image of A101449.

%C T(n,k) = 2^(n-k)*binomial(n-1,k-1)*A030981(k).

%C Row sums yield the ternary numbers (A001764).

%C T(n,n) = A030981(n).

%C The average number of branchnodes over all noncrossing trees with n edges is n(n-1)(19n^2-23n+10)/(3(3n-1)(3n-2)) ~ 19n/27 (see A045738).
