Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of deco polyominoes of height n having k cells in the second column (n>=1, k>=0). A deco polyomino is a directed column-convex polyomino in which the height, measured along the diagonal, is attained only in the last column.

FORMULA
The generating polynomial of row n is P(n,s)=Q(n,1,s), where Q(1,t,s)=t and Q(n,t,s)=tQ(n-1,t,s)+(t^n-t)Q(n-1,s,1)/(t-1) for n>=2.
EXAMPLE
T(2,0)=1 and T(2,1)=1 because the deco polyominoes of height 2 are the vertical and horizontal dominoes, having, respectively, 0 and 1 cells in their second columns.

MAPLE
Q[1]:=t: for n from 2 to 11 do Q[n]:=expand(simplify(t*Q[n-1]+(t^n-t)/(t-1)*subs({t=s, s=1}, Q[n-1]))): P[1]:=1: P[n]:=subs(t=1, Q[n]): od: for n from 1 to 11 do seq(coeff(P[n], s, j), j=0..n-1) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
