%N Table of number of partitions of an m X n rectangle, read by descending antidiagonals.
%C We count the partitions of the rectangle into regions of orthogonally connected unit squares. a(2, 2) = 12 comprising one partition of the 2 X 2 region; 4 partitions into a 3-square 'L' shape and an isolated corner; 2 partitions into two 1 X 2 bricks; 4 partitions into a 1 X 2 brick and two isolated squares; and 1 partition into four isolated squares.
