%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} such that there are exactly k entries between the entries 1 and 2 (n>=2, 0<=k<=n-2).

%C Sum of row n = n! = A000142(n).

%C The expected value of k is (n-2)/3. [_Geoffrey Critzer_, Dec 19 2009]

%F T(n,k) = 2*(n-k-1)*(n-2)!.

%F T(n,0) = 2(n-1)! = A052849(n-1).

%F T(n,1) = A052582(n-2).

%F T(n,2) = A052609(n-2).

%F T(n,3) = 12*A005990(n-3).

%F T(n,4) = 48*A061206(n-5).

%F T(n,n-2) = 2(n-2)! (A052849).

%F Sum_{k=0..n-2} k*T(n,k) = n!*(n-2)/3 = A090672(n-1).

%e T(4,2)=4 because we have 1342, 1432, 2341 and 2431.
