For the Pascal-like triangle with index of asymmetry y = 3 and index of obliqueness z = 0, which is read by rows, we have G(n, 0) = G(n+1, n+1) = 1, G(n+2, n+1) = 2, G(n+3, n+1) = 4, G(n+4, n+1) = 8, and G(n+5, k) = G(n+1, k-1) + G(n+1, k) + G(n+2, k) + G(n+3, k) + G(n+4, k) for k = 1..(n+1). (This is array A140996.)
For the Pascal-like triangle with index of asymmetry y = 3 and index of obliqueness z = 1, which is read by rows, we have G(n, n) = G(n+1, 0) = 1, G(n+2, 1) = 2, G(n+3, 2) = 4, G(n+4, 3) = 8, and G(n+5, k) = G(n+1, k-3) + G(n+1, k-4) + G(n+2, k-3) + G(n+3, k-2) + G(n+4, k-1) for k = 4..(n+4). (This is array A140995.)
The two triangular arrays A140995 and A140996, which are described above, are mirror images of each other.
To make the current sequence uniquely defined, we follow the suggestion of R. J. Mathar for sequence A141064. For each row of array A140996, the primes not appearing in earlier rows are collected, sorted, and added to the sequence. We get exactly the same sequence by working with array A140995 instead.
Finally, we mention that in the attached picture about the connection between Stepan's triangles and the Pascal triangle, the letter s is used to describe the index of asymmetry and the letter e is used to describe the index of obliqueness (instead of the letters y and z, respectively). The Pascal triangle A007318 has index of asymmetry s = y = 0.

EXAMPLE
|
Pascal-like triangle with y = 3 and z = 0 (i.e., A140996) begins as follows:
1, so no primes.
1 1, so no primes
1 2 1, so a(1) = 2.
1 4 2 1, so no new primes.
1 8 4 2 1, so no new primes.
1 16 8 4 2 1, so new primes.
1 31 17 8 4 2 1, so a(2) = 17 and a(3) = 31.
1 60 35 17 8 4 2 1, so no new primes.
1 116 72 35 17 8 4 2 1, so no new primes.
1 224 148 72 35 17 8 4 2 1, so new primes.
1 432 303 149 72 35 17 8 4 2 1, so a(4) = 149.

# Definition of sequence A140996 (y = 3 and z = 0):
A140996 := proc(n, k) option remember; if k < 0 or n < k then 0; elif k = 0 or k = n then 1; elif k = n - 1 then 2; elif k = n - 2 then 4; elif k = n - 3 then 8; else procname(n - 1, k) + procname(n - 2, k) + procname(n - 3, k) + procname(n - 4, k) + procname(n - 4, k - 1); end if; end proc;
# Definition of the current sequence:
A141068 := proc(nmax) local a, b, n, k, new; a := []; for n from 0 to nmax do b := []; for k from 0 to n do new := A140996(n, k); if not (new = 1 or not isprime(new) or new in a or new in b) then b := [op(b), new]; end if; end do; a := [op(a), op(sort(b))]; end do; RETURN(a); end proc;
# Generation of the current sequence:
# If one wishes to get the primes sorted (as R. J. Mathar does in A141031), then replace RETURN(a) in the code above with RETURN(sort(a)). In such a case, however, the output sequence is not uniquely defined because it depends on the maximum n. - Petros Hadjicostas, Jun 15 2019
