Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Triangular array: for s=0 to r-1, a(r,s) = p(s)^(r-s), where p(s) is the s-th primorial number. (p(0)=1, p(1)=2, p(2)=2*3, p(3)=2*3*5,...).

In the expansion of [1+x+x^2+...+x^(r-s)]^s, the x^n coefficient states how many factors of a(r,s) have n prime factors.
As a square array A(n,k) n>=0 k>=1 read by descending antidiagonals, A(n,k) when n>=1 is the least common period over the positive integers of the occurrence of the first n prime numbers as the k-th least operand in the respective integers' prime factorizations (written without exponents). - Peter Munn, Jan 25 2017
