COMMENTS

In the triangle of pentanomial coefficients, these numbers are in the column next to the central pentanomial coefficients, A005191. Note that for n>0, n divides a(n). This divisibility property is also true for the triangle of trinomial coefficients, A027907, but apparently for no other triangle of m-nomial coefficients. The quotient a(n)/n is in A104632.
