Example

The first rows of this triangular table are:
1;
2, 5;
10, 17, 23;
46, 70, 92, 119;
238, 358, 476, 597, 719;
...
T(3,1) = 10 as 10 has factorial base representation 120, which is the largest such three digit term in A219666 beginning with factorial base digit 1 (in other words, for which A084558(x)=3 and A099563(x)=1).
T(3,2) = 17 as 17 has factorial base representation 221, which is the largest such three digit term in A219666 beginning with factorial base digit 2.
T(3,3) = 23 as 23 has factorial base representation 321, which is the largest such three digit term in A219666 beginning with factorial base digit 3.
