A125208
Irregular triangle read by rows: T(n,k) (n>=1, 0<=k<=n(n-1)/2) is such that Sum_k T(n,k)*p^k gives the expectation of the number of connected components after deleting every edge of the complete graph on n labeled vertices with probability p.

FORMULA
G.f.: Sum_{n,k} T(n,k)*x^n/(p^(n*(n-1)/2)*n!) = H(x,p)*exp(H(x,p)) where H(x,p)=Sum_{n=1..oo} x^n/(p^(n*(n-1)/2)*n!).
Sum_k T(n,k)*p^k = Sum_k A125205(n,k)*p^(n*(n-1)/2-k)*(1-p)^k
EXAMPLE
Triangle begins:

1, 1;
1, 0, 3, -1;

...
Sum_k T(3,k)*p^k = 1+3*p^2-p^3 is the expectation of the number of connected components in a complete graph on 3 labeled vertices where every edge is removed with probability p.
