%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of ascent sequences of length n with maximal element k-1.
%C Row sums are A022493.
%C Second column is A000225 (2^n - 1).
%C Third column appears to be A000392 (Stirling numbers S(n,3)).
%C Second diagonal (from the right) appears to be A006127 (2^n + n).
