A108286
Triangle read by rows; columns are simple recursive sequences.

1, 3, 1, 6, 4, 1, 10, 11, 5, 1, 15, 26, 18, 6, 1, 21, 57, 58, 27, 7, 1, 28, 120, 179, 112, 38, 8, 1, 36, 247, 543, 453, 194, 51, 9, 1, 45, 502, 1636, 1818, 975, 310, 66, 10, 1

COMMENTS
Left column = triangular numbers; Col. 2, (1, 4, 11...) = A000295; Col. 3, (1, 5, 18...) = A000340; Col. 4, (1, 6, 27...) = A014825; Col.5, (1, 7, 38...) = A014827.
FORMULA
r-th term in n-th column: initial "1", then a(r) = n*a(r-1) + r. Diagonals of A108285 become the columns of A108286.
EXAMPLE
First few rows of the triangle are:
1;
3, 1;
6, 4, 1;
10, 11; 5, 1;
15, 26, 18, 6, 1;
21, 57, 58, 27, 7, 1;
...
3rd offset column: (1, 5, 18, 58...) = "1", then a(r) = 3*a(r-1) + r; e.g. 58 = 3*18 + 4 since 58 is the fourth term in the third column.
