COMMENTS

a(n) is the number of different possible sums of c_k * (n choose k) where the c_k are a permutation of 0 through n. - Joshua Zucker, May 08 2006

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..21.

EXAMPLE

For n = 2 we have three triangles:

..4.......5.......3

.1,3.....2,3.....2,1

0,1,2...0,2,1...2,0,1

with three different values for the apex, so a(2) = 3.
