Last number of each row is a power of 2.
(n-th alternating row sum)=2-n for n>1.
For a discussion and guide to related arrays, see A208510.
FORMULA
u(n,x)=u(n-1,x)+(x+1)*v(n-1,x),
v(n,x)=2x*u(n-1,x)+v(n-1,x)+1,
where u(1,x)=1, v(1,x)=1.
EXAMPLE
First five rows:
1
2...2
3...6....2
4...14...12...4
5...28...40...24...4
First three polynomials v(n,x): 1, 2 + 2x, 3 + 6x + x^2.
