%N A triangle formed like Pascal's triangle, but with 3^n on the borders instead of 1.

%C All rows except the zeroth are divisible by 3. Is there a closed-form formula for these numbers, like for binomial coefficients?

%C Let b=3 and T(n,k) = A(n-k,k) be the associated reading of the symmetric array A by antidiagonals, then A(n,k) = sum_{r=1..n} b^r*A178300(n-r,k) + sum_{c=1..k} b^c*A178300(k-c,n). Similarly with b=4 and b=5 for A227074 and A227076. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 10 2013
