%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of bargraphs of semiperimeter n having k horizontal steps in the peaks (n>=2, k>=1).

%C Number of entries in row n is n-1.

%C Sum of entries in row n = A082582(n).

%C T(n,1) = A088305(n-2) = F(2n-4) where F(n) are the Fibonacci numbers A000045.

%C Sum(k*T(n,k), k>=0) = A273720(n).

%F G.f.: G(s,z), where s marks number of horizontal steps in the peaks and z marks semiperimeter, satisfies the equation given in the Maple program.

%F G.f.: G(w,z), where w marks number of horizontal steps in the peaks and z marks semiperimeter, satisfies eq. (7) of the Blecher et al. reference, where one has to set x = z and y = z.

%F The trivariate g.f. G = G(t,s,z), where t marks number of peaks, s marks number of horizontal steps in the peaks, and z marks semiperimeter, satisfies z*(1-z)*(1-s*z)*G^2-(1-3*z-s*z+z^2+3*s*z^2-s*z^3+t*s*z^3-t*s*z^4)*G + t*s*z^2*(1-z)^2 = 0.

%e Row 4 is 3,1,1 because the 5 (=A082582(4)) bargraphs of semiperimeter 4 correspond to the compositions [1,1,1],[1,2],[2,1],[2,2],[3] and the corresponding drawings show that they have 3,1,1,2,1 horizontal steps in their peaks.
