If n is in A003586, then T(n,1) = 1, else T(n,1) = 0.
T(n,k) also is the number of ways of representing n involving k 1's in the base(2,3) or "dual-base number system" (i.e., base(2,3)).
The number of "canonic" representations of n in a dual-base number system as defined by the reference as having the lowest number of terms, appears in the first column of the triangle with a value greater than 0.
A237442(n) = the least k with a nonzero value.

Row n = 10 has terms {0,3,1,1} because 10 is not in A003586 thus k = 1 has value 0. The partitions of 10 that have distinct members that are in A003586 are {{1,9},{2,8},{4,6},{1,3,6},{1,2,3,4}}, thus there are 3 partitions of length k = 2, 1 of length k = 3, and 1 with k = 4. A237442(10) = 2.
