%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of ternary trees with n edges and having k vertices of outdegree 2 (n >= 0, k >= 0).

%C A ternary tree is a rooted tree in which each vertex has at most three children and each child of a vertex is designated as its left or middle or right child.

%F T(n,k) = (1/(n+1))*binomial(n+1,k)*Sum_{j=0..floor(n/2)-k} 3^(n-k-3j)*binomial(n+1-k, k+1+2j)*binomial(n-2k-2j, j).

%F G.f.: G = G(t,z) satisfies G = 1 + 3zG + 3tz^2*G^2 + z^3*G^3.

%F Row n has 1+floor(n/2) terms.

%F Row sums yield A001764.

%F T(n,0) = A120985(n).

%F Sum_{k>=1} k*T(n,k) = 3*binomial(3n,n-2) = 3*A003408(n-2).

%e T(2,1)=3 because we have (Q,L,M), (Q,L,R) and (Q,M,R), where Q denotes the root and L (M,R) denotes a left (middle, right) child of Q.
