%N Triangle, read by rows, where row n lists the coefficients of x^k, k=1..2^n, in the n-th iteration of (x + x^2) for n>=0.

%C T(n, k) is the number of strings of length k-1 on the alphabet {1, 2, ..., n} such that between every two occurrences of a letter i there is an occurrence of a letter strictly larger than i. For example, for n = 3, k = 4 we have the strings 121, 131, 232 and the six permutations of 123. - _Joel B. Lewis_, May 06 2008
