%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of directed column-convex polyominoes of area n and having k cells in the shortest column (1<=k<=n).

%C Row sums are the odd-subscripted Fibonacci numbers (A001519). T(n,1)=fibonacci(2n-1)-A121469(n,0) (obviously, since A121469(n,k) is the number of directed column-convex polyominoes of area n and having k 1-cell columns). T(n,n)=1.

%F G.f. of column k is f[k]-f[k+1], where f[k]=z^k*(1-z)/(z^2-2*z+1+z^(1+k)*k-k*z^k-z^(1+k)) is the g.f. for directed column-convex polyominoes whose columns have height at least k.
