COMMENTS
This transform is the inverse of a triangle in which each row has n terms of the harmonic series; i.e., the inverse of: 1; 1, 1/2; 1, 1/2, 1/3; ...
Eigensequence of the unsigned triangle = A002467 starting (1, 4, 15, 76, 455, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 29 2008
Table T(n,k) read by antidiagonals. T(1,1)=1, T(n,1) = n (for n>1), T(n,2) = -n, T(n,k) = 0, k > 2. - Boris Putievskiy, Jan 17 2013

FORMULA
Triangle, a(1) = 1; by rows, (n-2) zeros followed by -n, n.
From Boris Putievskiy, Jan 17 2013: (Start)
a(n) = floor((A002260(n)+2)/(A003056(n)+2))*(A003056(n)+1)*(-1)^(A002260(n)+A003056(n)+1), n>0.
a(n) = floor((i+2)/(t+2))*(t+1)*(-1)^(i+t+1), where i=n-t*(t+1)/2, t=floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2). (End)
a(n) = floor(-1/2*A002024(n)^2 + A002024(n+1)^2-1/2*A002024(n+1) + 1/2*A002024(n+2) - 1/2*A002024(n+2)^2). - Brian Tenneson, Feb 10 2017
EXAMPLE
First few rows of the triangle are:
1;
-2, 2;
0, -3, 3;
0, 0, -4, 4;
0, 0, 0, -5, 5;
0, 0, 0, 0, -6, 6;
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, -7, 7;
...

The start of the sequence as table:
1..-1..0..0..0..0..0...
1..-2..0..0..0..0..0...
2..-3..0..0..0..0..0...
3..-4..0..0..0..0..0...
4..-5..0..0..0..0..0...
5..-6..0..0..0..0..0...
6..-7..0..0..0..0..0...
...
The start of the sequence as triangle array read by rows:
1;
-1,1;
0,-2,2;
0,0,-3,3;
0,0,0,-4,4;
0,0,0,0,-5,5;
0,0,0,0,0,-6,6;
0,0,0,0,0,0,-7,7;
...
Row number r (r>4) contains (r-2) times '0', then '-r' and 'r'. (End)
