%N Triangle T(n,k) of ways n couples can sit in a row with exactly k of them together

%C Row n sums to (2n)!

%C Dot product of row n and (0,1,2,3,...n) is equal to (2n)!

%C Dot product of row n and (0,0,1,2,...n-1) is equal to T(n,0)

%H Andrew Woods, <a href="/A193639/b193639.txt">Rows n = 0..50 of triangle, flattened</a>

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

%F T(n, n) = 2^n * n! = (2n)!!

%F T(n, k) = sum(i=k..n, (-1)^(i-k) * 2^i * (2n-i)! * binomial(n, i) * binomial(i, k))

%F T(n, 0) = A007060(n).

%F T(n, n) = A000165(n).
