Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of ternary words of length n on {0,1,2} having sum of the lengths of the drops equal to k (n>=0, k>=0). The drops of a ternary word on {0,1,2} are the subwords 10,20 and 21, their lengths being the differences 1, 2 and 1, respectively.

COMMENTS
Row n has 2*floor(n/2)+1 terms (i.e. each of the rows 2n and 2n+1 has 2n+1 terms). Row sums are the powers of 3 (A000244). T(n,0)=A000217(n+1) (the triangular numbers). Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=0)=4(n-1)3^(n-2)=A120908(n)=4*A027471(n).
FORMULA
G.f.=G(t,z)=1/[(1-z+tz)(1-2z+z^2-tz-tz^2)].
EXAMPLE
T(4,3)=4 because we have 1020,2010,2021 and 2120.

MAPLE
G:=1/(1-z+t*z)/(1-2*z+z^2-t*z-t*z^2): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 15)): P[0]:=1: for n from 1 to 12 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z^n)) od: for n from 0 to 12 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..2*floor(n/2)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
