%N Array T(n,m) = 1 + (n+m-2) mod 26, 1 <= n,m <= 26, read by rows or columns.
%C The pattern arises if one assigns numbers A=1 up to Z=26 to the letters in the 26 X 26 Vigenere square, which contains A to Z in the first row and circular shifts in the follow-up rows (that is, B..Z,A in the 2nd, C...Z,A,B in the 3rd etc.).
