FORMULA
EXAMPLE
When written as a triangle:
1
1, 5;
1, 5, 9, 13;
1, 5, 9, 13, 9, 21, 33, 29;
...
Rows sums are A006516 (this is immediate from the definition).
From Omar E. Pol, Feb 17 2015: (Start)
Also, written as an irregular triangle in which the row lengths are the terms of A011782:
1;
1;
5,1;
5,9,13,1;
5,9,13,9,21,33,29,1;
5,9,13,9,21,33,29,9,21,33,37,41,77,97,61,1;
5,9,13,9,21,33,29,9,21,33,37,41,77,97,61,9,21,33,37,41,77,97,69,41,77,105,117,161,253,257,125,1;
Row sums give 1 together with the positive terms of A006516.
It appears that the right border (A000012) gives the smallest difference between A160164 and A169707 in every period.
